Abstract

Autonomous manufacturing of personalized and reusable medical protective equipment through 3D printing and molding. The aim of "2StepProtect" is to make up for the lack of complex protective equipment that has arisen nationally due to the COVID-19 pandemic through flexible local production. The technical core is a combination of 3D printing and casting. The in-house production directly in the medically critical infrastructure (hospitals, care facilities) and thus the minimization of the dependence on foreign providers is an important contribution to ensuring the supply for current and future emerging crisis situations due to infectious diseases.
