Your machine, material, wage, failure rate, and electricity tariff are the only useful assumptions.
Worked examples and itemized cost breakdowns show how each result is derived.
Look beyond filament expense to shipping, platform fees, and profit margin.
How much should you charge for a 3D print?
Start by calculating everything consumed, not just the filament inside the finished part. Add supports and purge waste, machine depreciation, power, active labor, an allowance for failed attempts, hardware, and shipping. When you sell on a marketplace, account for its fees before claiming a profit margin.
Our full pricing calculator combines these inputs. For one cost component, use our filament, failure cost, or electricity tool.
Calculations are estimates. Learn about our assumptions and exclusions in the methodology.
