Yasojima was contacted by a medical organization with the following requirement.
“Infusion line connectors can easily become entangled when using more than one at a time. It is troublesome for our medical practitioners and could potentially be dangerous. We require a reliable and durable mount that can safely and securely fix the connectors in place so our medical staff can focus on the patient.”
Yasojima designed a 3D printed jig with Nylon 12 as it is able to reproduce the physical characteristics of structures such as springs and hinges. The jig allows infusion line connectors to be spring mounted in place, with no moving parts, on a single mounting plate. It is reliable, durable, and easy to operate.
