Acute respiratory disease later known as Covid-19 is pandemic origin from Wuhan, China. Detecting in 2019, this disease spread rapidly to entire world within few months. The ability to infect to the victim with aerosol spread has force to the medical personnel to wear a personal protective equipment (PPE) all the time when dealing with patient resulting shortage all over the world. To overcome with the shortage, a movement by three-dimensional (3D) printer user has start producing and distributing the face shield (component of PPE) to the medical personnel. A fused deposition modelling (FDM) 3D printer is chosen by many due to easy to use, fast production and low-cost material. While lots of study deals with the process and the production of 3d printed face shield, there is lack of study about the user experience (UX) of the printer's operator itself. Using a think aloud method to gather the information, this study intends to reveal the user experience of 3D printing of face shield by addressing the scope of the 3D printing process and the required engagement to accomplish the whole production cycle. Ten volunteers from different background and exposer to the 3d printing technology will be chose to participate in this study. Each verbal comment from the participant will be recorded, decoded, and mapped to the design and usability principle and this study expecting the UX issue and concern can be highlight and being presented.
