Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a new type of disease SARS-CoV-2 and resembles the SARS virus which has now become a pandemic. The level of transmission caused by droplets raises the need for personal protective equipment that can prevent spread. The great need causes the ratio of supply and demand to become unbalanced. This study aims to develop a personal protective product in the form of a face shield that has a good product acceptance rate and an effective manufacturing process. This study uses a 3D printer with the Fused Deposit Material (FDM) system as a means of manufacturing products. First, a product modification process is carried out which is then tested with several parameters. The parameters of the product acceptance level used are fit, space, comfort, weight. Each parameter is measured using a visual analogue scale. The results of product testing were obtained that the fit and weight parameters were in the very good category and the space and comfort parameters were in the good category. The production time required to manufacture a product is 31 minutes and spent 31 grams of the filament. © 2021 IEEE.
