For Starline, social commitment in the TeckLab – the technical meeting and maker space for children, teenagers and all the young at heart – just a little bit different than planned.
Originally purchased for technology enthusiasts, the 3D printer has been working around the clock for the past week, so that in the doctors Diemer’s dental practice can be drilled again in Kirchheim.
The Starline employees really put their backs into it and developed five different models. These were optimized for weight and ergonomics, tested and finally printed out. Plexiglas from the construction market was problematic, as it proved to be too rigid and inflexible for these purposes. But the solution to the problem was then found in Starline’s office warehouse: However, highly flexible and transparent DIN-A4 cover sheets for the customer presentations produced in-house proved to be ideal for this application. This meant that exchangeable and pre-punched replacement shields, which are necessary for hygienic operation, could be supplied immediately.
Face shields have become a scarce commodity because of the corona crisis. And especially dentists urgently need these shields for their work. After all, they are in direct contact with the oral cavity of patients.
