My first attempt at a commercial 3D print: an asthma inhaler body that can flip into a slimmer form so it doesnt jut out and dug into legs or tear pants. What do you guys think?
Edit: Hi all, it seems like the general consensus is that this is a dangerous product. I really believed that I was making something helpful but that may not be the case. I have decided to take down the listing from Cults3D. Thank you for your feedback.
I agree. Admittedly I haven’t dealt with the legal side in years and never outside my own country. But definitely talk to a specialist lawyer or other expert about it. Because of the oral application it might not even be the lowest level of medical device anymore. And with that comes a multitude of regulations. From durability to material to production environment.
I like the idea and as someone who had to use a dispenser in my youth, I appreciate the smaller profile of it.
FWIW, resin may be better.
But I definite, OP should chat with somebody that knows more- I just know enough to say that much.
Isn’t the type of plastic used in resin prints relatively toxic?
Frankly, I’m not sure there’s a good alternative to traditional manufacturing (injection molding or whatever) for this application.
