Redesigened Prusa Face Shield for very efficient printing
Published 2020-04-10T04:00:15+00:00
Many maker hubs are currently pinting the Prusa face shields. But even the latest versions take a long time to print. I decided to design a pin compatible face shield which is printable in spiralized vase mode. With a Tronxy X5S I achieved a print time of 35 minutes at 100mm/s print speed.
Pros:
minimized filament use of about 16g
more flexible than the original to fit to the face better.
allmost constant and linear print speed gives good print results and good bed adhesion
no travels
no retractions required
no stringing for PET-G filament
Cons:
optimized for 0.4mm nozzles
no stackable design
rubber mounts are diffetent from Prusa design
Printer: Tronxy X5S
Rafts: No
Supports: No
Resolution: 0.2 mm
Infill: 0%
Notes:
Mandatory Cura settings:
Top Layers: 0
Bottom Layers: 0
Infill Density: 0%
Spiralize Outer Contour: checked (vase mode) Vase mode can handle higher print speeds. Check out what your printer can handle and set all wall speeds to this maximum value.
Threre are very narrow gaps. These are intended to stick together. If the printed part has gaps between the walls or makes crackling noise on bending increase the filament flow.
