3D CAD File: Respirator-free reanimation Venturi's valve
Follow articleYou may have read my recent article explaining how Italian company Isinnova responded to a call for help from a hospital in Northern Italy to keep their reanimation devices operational during the Covid-19 pandemic by 3D printing replacement valves that had become unavailable from their usual suppliers.
Below we have included a link to download the 3D CAD files for these valves, to ensure that everybody who needs access to them can print their own.
These ready-to-print Venturi's valve models are for respirator-free masks and have been created as a non-profit project for the Covid-19 pandemic.
Revision 2 (CFD-calculated) available:
* FiO2 = ~33%
* O2 sup. = 10LPM
* Air out. = ~63LPM
2x 25mm O.D. (air suction, patient)
1x 5mm O.D. (oxygen)
Volume of 3D model - 15133 mm3
Revision 1 contains 3 Venturi Valves with:
B = 0,12 ; 0,3 ; 0,5
Uploaded: 19/3/2020
Files Included: STL, STEP / IGES, Rendering, SOLIDWORKS
For anybody who needs access to a free 3D design software in order to access these files DesignSpark Mechanical is free to download and use for both personal and commercial use.

I can only find the 0.33 FIO2 model. The other 2 files are missing. Can you help?

How is this project being coordinated? What materials and other settings are appropriate? How many of these parts are needed?
information about related projects and a discord server where the stuff is being discussed can be found in this article: https://3dprintingindustry.com/news/3d-printing-community-responds-to-covid-19-and-coronavirus-resources-169143
Thank you for posting this!
