Kidney Tray

thingiverse

This is a 3D printable kidney tray, designed whilst looking at how to supply Health Posts in Nepal with equipment after the earthquake. The design has been developed in collaboration with various medical practitioners in Nepal. It has a wide stable base, but a smooth inner curvature to aid easy access to tools. This device is suitable for use outside the operating theater only. Please treat this as a single use, non-autoclavable device. Thanks to Humanitarian Maker Julia Jenjezwa for her contributions to this design. Print Settings Printer: Up! Box Rafts: Yes Supports: No Resolution: less than or equal to 0.25mm Infill: greater or equal to 50% Notes: Designed to be printed support free. On the UP! Box, we used PRNT3D Natural ABS filament, which prints with better layer to layer adhesion than UP brand ABS. The downside of this is that support is hard to remove, but it prints watertight. This object has a large flat base - depending on your printer's capabilities, it is recommended to pre-heat the bed, or if your bed is not heated, use BuildTak or equivalent techniques to prevent warping and peeling. Post-Printing Check Watertight Place on a tray, fill with water, leave overnight, check for leaks.
