Today, we will discuss the printing of cell phone cases, which is widely done with UV printers. “How much profit do you make if you sell a cell phone case after UV printing?”

 

I. ‘Will it make money?’ _Cell phone case UV printing revenue

 

1. Before purchasing equipment _Cell phone case UV printing revenue

 

When purchasing equipment, the first concern is ‘Will it be profitable?’, and the second is ‘When will I be able to recover the equipment investment cost?’.

We wonder about the material cost + printing cost of the item I want to proceed with, and we also find out about the price of the product we produce.

‘If we produce this much a month, we can cover office rent, operating expenses, and living expenses, although it’s not enough.’

After deciding on the main item, we start looking at other items that can be produced with a UV printer.

 

2. Items that can be produced with only a UV Printer _Cell phone case UV printing revenue

 

When we look at other products on the market, there are so many different ones.

we wondered, ‘Can I make this with just a UV Printer?’, and then I learned about UV DTF,
and then we wondered, ‘Should I buy a laser cutter?’

However, due to the initial cost burden,

‘Let’s start with items that can be produced with a UV Printer, and outsource the ones that need processing.’

That’s how we researched items that can be produced with just a UV Printer.

 

UV Printers themselves are also categorized by color options as shown below.

 

A. Printable items that can be implemented with color only

If the material to be printed is a white background, these products can be produced using color alone.

Main materials include white foam board, white foam-X, canvas, golf balls, standard white menu boards, notepads, and ballpoint pens.

 

B. Items that can be printed if Color + White is required

If the material you’re printing on is transparent or contains non-white colors, you’ll need white ink.

This includes glass, transparent plastic, transparent acrylic, transparent PC, or colored materials.

 

C. Color + White + Varnish

There is a Varnish that can produce special effects other than white color.

 

3. Even if it’s just a UV printer _Cell phone case UV printing revenue

If I were to give my personal opinion after selling UV Printers for 20 years, Color + White is a must, and if I were you, I would definitely include Varnish.

 

Color is better with CMYK Lc Lm 6-color than CMYK 4-color.

• Lc Lm is particularly effective when expressing light skin tones.
• Without Lc Lm, light skin tones would have more black dots mixed in,
• resulting in a harsher skin tone.

 

White must be dense enough to express the image well.

• For this reason, it should be at least twice the color, and the more the better.
• The purpose of white is to mask the background color when printing color on black or red materials.
• If the background color is black, white must be printed at least 400% or 600% to completely mask the black.
• If the background color is double the color, white alone must be printed at least two or three times to mask the background color, which increases printing time.
• The same applies to printing on transparent materials. If the color is dark, white may not completely mask the color when viewed from the back.

 

With UV printers becoming more common, it’s a good idea to include varnish for developing specialized items.

Specialized items and transparent Braille, as shown in the photo below, guarantee high profits.

 

II. Cell phone case delivery cost and margin _Cell phone case UV printing revenue

Since ink consumption varies by image, ink costs will vary depending on the image being printed.

The data below shows the production time for printing one phone case. Printing multiple cases significantly reduces the production time.

 

1. Cell phone case production cost _Cell phone case UV printing revenue 

 

A. Labor cost
Calculate labor cost per second based on hourly wage of 10,000 won
158 seconds for one print, labor cost is 439 won

 

B. Ink Cost
When you enter the ink value into the lip software, the ink consumption and ink cost are automatically calculated. .
Ink consumption is 0.03ml, ink cost is 2.89 won.

You can learn how to calculate ink costs by reading the article below.

How to Calculate Ink Consumption for an Image You’re Currently Printing

C. Cell phone case unit price
When purchasing in bulk, one jelly case costs 500 won

 

D. Total Cost

941.89 won = Labor cost (439 won) + Ink cost (2.89 won) + Case (500 won)

Labor cost is the time to print one image,
and when printing multiple images at once, if divided by the production time per phone case, the labor cost can be reduced by more than 50%.

2. Added value _Cell phone case UV printing revenue

If delivered directly to consumers, the selling price per phone case is 9,000 won, and the margin is approximately 8,000 won.

If 20 are delivered to retailers at the same time, the price per phone case is 3,500 won, and if 20 are produced, the margin is approximately 50,000 won.

If 20 are produced at the same time, the production time per phone case is reduced, and labor costs can be reduced by more than 50%.

 

III. A few notes _Cell phone case UV printing revenue

One,
I found out the cost with a cell phone, but you can calculate the cost of other products using the same principle.

 

Two,
Recently released cell phones are not easy to UV print due to the height of the camera.
It is risky to choose a cell phone case as the main item.
If you absolutely must print on a phone case, you’ll need to purchase a UV printer capable of printing at high standoffs.

 

Three,
You should also include the ink consumed for cleaning, or maintenance, in the cost for the ink used during printing.

 

Fourth,
If you print on a jelly case with Rigid UV Ink and then bend the case, the printed ink on the case may crack, so you should use flexible UV ink,  and for a hard case, you should use rigid UV ink that is resistant to scratches.

However, since it is not easy to purchase one flexible UV ink printer and one rigid UV ink printer,
there will be no major problems when printing if you change only the White UV Ink from flexible to rigid or vice versa depending on the case.

IV. This is how ARTJET supports our customers.

One thing I feel while selling and maintaining ARTJET UV Printers for 5 years is that the next most important thing after product stability is Troubleshooting DATA.

All products have problems, whether they are actual equipment problems or consumer errors, and product stability is how easily and quickly you solve those problems.
