Summer 2020 | By Nicole Dudenhoefer<\/strong> ’17<\/b><\/em><\/p>\n

When the nation faced a shortage of personal protective\u00a0equipment, two groups from 麻豆原创 partnered with 3D\u00a0printer manufacturer Stratasys to help alleviate the\u00a0demand. By tweaking designs they found online, 麻豆原创’s\u00a0Prototype Development and 3D Print Lab (PD3D)\u00a0optimized rapid production through Stratasys’ 150\u00a0printers nationwide<\/a>. Limbitless Solutions joined\u00a0Stratasys’ national coalition to produce visors for face\u00a0shields and other items to help keep medical workers\u00a0safe<\/a>. Products from both 麻豆原创 organizations have\u00a0recently been distributed to local healthcare<\/a> workers,\u00a0including more than 5,600 face shields and visors\u00a0for Orlando Health, AdventHealth and Lakeland\u00a0Regional Hospital.
