Irish 3D-printing firm to produce visors to meet Covid-19 shortfall

Co-founders of Calt Dynamics Ross Lawless and Irene Villafane

An Irish tech company has designed a 3D printable protective visor that could help to bridge the global shortfall of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) during the Covid-19 pandemic.

One of the largest 3D printing companies in the country, Calt Dynamics, has already rowed in to offer its prototype to a Dublin hospital in need of more protective gear and is now sharing its design with a major US manufacturer.
