Flat panels and shallow curves
Validate adhesion and finish on the actual shell; cover flat panels and only shallow edge transitions of a few degrees, leaving tight radii and highly curved corners unprinted.

Protective Case Printing Capabilities
Repeatable multi-SKU production
Keep artwork consistent across different case sizes, shell textures, and production batches using digital changeovers and sample-based QA.
Print-safe hardware zones
Plan artwork around handles, latches, and ribs so the branding stays clear where shell geometry allows.
Coordinated brand graphics
Translate a visual identity into repeatable colour blocks, pattern, and panel placement across a recognizable case family.
Recommended Stack for Case Printing
Flatbed UV platform
Direct printing on rigid case components with stable multi-pass quality behavior.

Supports components with more challenging geometry or height requirements.
See Stack Details
SR-200+ for rigid surfaces
Positioned for adhesion and durability on hard materials used in case production.
See Stack Details
PREMIUMFLEX+ for flexible elements
Positioned for leather-like and flexible case elements in mixed product ranges.
See Stack DetailsCase Artwork to Production in 4 Steps
1
Surface qualification
Classify materials, texture behavior, and required finish outcomes.
2
Artwork and finish setup
Prepare graphics, layering, and varnish configuration for target SKU groups.
3
UV print and curing
Run calibrated print and cure workflow across validated case component families.
4
QA and release
Verify adhesion, finish consistency, and visual quality before rollout.
Proof Points for Case Program Decisions
Use these references to evaluate technical fit, durability performance, and commercial upside for case customization:
- SR-200+ is positioned for wear, UV, and moisture resistance in demanding use environments.
- Material coverage references include hard plastics, leather, and artificial leather surfaces.
- Available linear carriage encoders use 1-micron measurement resolution for motion feedback; this is not a finished-print accuracy tolerance.
- 3D layering and varnish support helps create premium tactile finishes with higher perceived value.
