"Lab Created"
Chameleon Ear™ PRO Series
We use 3D-Print technology to create a precise replica of your ear canal and outer ear. Each set has a lanyard that connects your earplugs and a pouch for storage. This option differs from the Insta-Molds® because it allows you to customize your hearing protection based on specific needs.
Phases of Production:
Initial Consultation: When you come to us for your Chameleon Ears™ earplugs, we show you the form with the electronic options for you to consider. It would help if you shared your expectations for the earplugs, what you plan to use them for, and any details you feel are relevant. That allows us to help you choose the customizations you need.
Before you come for your impressions:
- Clean your ears and trim excessive hairs. Any earwax, hair, or sebum can impact the finished product, and we want you to have perfect results.
- Eat or drink because movement of the jaw impacts the impressions.
Impression Session: We use an otoscope to check your ears for infection, impacted earwax, or any other variables that could potentially mar the impression or pose risks to your hearing health. (For example, if your eardrums show signs of injury, we can’t risk the process.) A foam block keeps the putty from touching your eardrums.
Using a special syringe, we inject the putty, which we mix with a catalyst that allows it to become firm within ten to twelve minutes. Afterward, we carefully remove the mixture, ensuring the mold remains undamaged, and package it for shipping to the lab. (Since E.A.R. Inc. saves your impressions on file for up to five years, we want to ensure it’s as close to perfect as possible.)
The Finished Product: The lab uses 3D-Print technology to create your custom earplugs. E.A.R. Inc.’s expert technicians install any additional electronic customizations before packaging your earplugs and shipping them to your address. Allow 2-4 weeks for production and shipping.
