A free calculator compares 3D-printing costs across filament, purge, electricity, machine wear, labor, packaging and failed prints.

For
3D-print makers estimating batch costs
Worth noticing
Its retry estimate assumes independent whole-plate failures and explicitly excludes partial and correlated failures.

Field notes

The cost model separates material and purge, electricity, machine wear, labor, packaging and expected retries. Its retry calculation assumes independent whole-plate failures, consumes a user-entered share of resources on each failed attempt, and repeats setup labor. The displayed rates are labeled examples rather than measured averages; the page also cautions that estimates omit unentered costs and do not establish demand or profitability.
