Developer MandicReally has unveiled an unusual project: the Voron V.PC – a fully 3D-printed computer case that is visually and structurally based on the well-known Voron 3D printers. The concept combines the modular, open design of the printers with the requirements of modern PC hardware. Although it is not an official project of the Voron design team, the case follows its principles of openness, precision, and adaptability.
The case is based on a frame made of 2020 aluminum profiles, supplemented by numerous 3D-printed components and transparent acrylic panels. Inside, there is space for common PC components, including ATX motherboards, standard power supplies, and large graphics cards up to approximately 400 mm in length. Tall air coolers up to 199 mm can also be installed. The design supports multiple fan sizes – 120, 140, and 60 mm models – as well as options for radiators and water cooling.
The print files include mounts for the motherboard, power supply, and fans, as well as side panels, skirts, and bezels. STEP and Fusion files are also included to facilitate customization. A typical print requires about 2.6 kilograms of filament. Stable materials such as ABS or ASA are recommended, which should be processed at a layer height of 0.2 mm and a minimum infill of 40 percent.
In addition to the 3D-printed parts, commercially available connecting elements such as M3 and M5 screws, T-slot nuts, magnets, and foam seals are used for assembly. The front can optionally be equipped with a small circuit board for buttons and LEDs.
