A hospital in Italy’s coronavirus hotspot ran out of life-saving medical equipment. Here’s how a 3D-printer company came to its rescue Read more about the story here:
Cristian Fracassi, a 36-year-old engineer, was a godsend for a hospital in Brescia, one of the worst coronavirus-hit cities in northern Italy. The hospital is at the frontline of treating patients with coronavirus and last Friday it ran out of ventilator valves that connect facemasks with oxygen machines. Fracass, who runs a 3D printing startup, stepped in with help.
The hospital asked if I could 3D print the valves. So I went to the hospital, took a sample piece and measured it. After that we 3D printed four pieces. So if you run into a problem use the original one. If you are in an emergency, use the 3D alternative. How are you dealing with the lockdown in your region?My city is Brescia. Most companies are closed. It is one of the worst-hit cities with COVID-19. In fact, all the factories are closed. Probably mine is one of the few companies that is still open. But we are working for hospitals and trying to save lives.
