Need a phone case? 3D printed phone cases are the latest cool gadget for custom phone case printing. However, many of our prospective customers come to us with a burning question: “Are 3D printed phone cases safe”? The good news is that 3D printed phone cases are perfectly safe — if they are printed with the right kind of materials and printing process. In this blog, we’ll discuss how the modern 3D phone case is the perfect combination of safe, durable, and stylish, and how our phone case vending machine guarantees all three.
The Truth About 3D Printed Phone Cases
Beautiful colors, dynamic designs, and wild artwork might come to mind when you first think about 3D printed phone cases. However, while a 3D printed phone case is very much like a personalized piece of art that is specific to its end-user, the proper materials and printing process can provide strong protection against drops, scratches, and long-term wear.
In the past, this wasn’t necessarily true of all 3D printed phone cases: in the early days of this technology, some machines printed cases with brittle thermoplastics that were more liable to crack and pop off at the edges. This is not the case with modern machines that print using a UV curing process, and definitely not the case with phone cases printed with our Phone Case Printing Vending Machine (they are also more environmentally friendly because of it).
UV Printing: A Game-Changer in Phone Case Manufacturing
It might sound like an overly scientific term but we use UV (Ultraviolet) printing technology in our phone case vending machine. It’s a curing method that uses ultraviolet light to instantly dry the ink as it’s being printed.
How this matters is that UV printing has many advantages over more basic direct-to-substrate printing processes:
✅ Exceptional Durability
UV printing produces sharper images and a durable finish. Unlike standard inks, UV-cured inks adhere tightly to surfaces and resist scratches, water, and fading.
✅ Eco-Friendly
No solvents, no fumes. UV printing is safer for both operators and the environment, making it an ideal solution for public spaces like shopping malls, airports, and universities.
✅ Supports a Wide Range of Materials
UV printers work well on both soft TPU and hard PC materials. Our vending machines use hybrid phone cases (soft edges, hard back) to provide the perfect balance of grip and structure.
✅ Fast Printing
With our industrial-grade Epson XP600 print head, a customer can get a fully customized case in just minutes. That’s not only convenient but also efficient in high-traffic locations.
