TOV Mikrofiltr is a Ukraine-based manufacturer of personal protective equipment. The company has been operating in the market since 1990. Its product range includes respirators offering various protection classes, filtering half masks, civilian gas masks, light protective suits, and absorber filters. 

Client’s problem

The company required a physical model of a respirator cap to manufacture its products. Dimensions: 84 x 103.5 x 28.7 mm.  They tried to use FDM printing for this purpose, but the result didn’t meet their requirements. Casting was not an option as the cost of making one mold is expensive and also time-consuming. 

Solution

TOV Mikrofiltr turned to Infomir 3D Printing for help. The company provided a 3D model and asked us to print the finely detailed item within five days. 

Result

Infomir 3D Printing completed the order on time and delivered the required component to the client. We used an industrial 3D printing line HP Jet Fusion 5210, and polyamide HP PA 12 to print the item. This printing technology enables us to manufacture items as detailed as 1,200 DPI and as thin as 80 micrometers.
