How We Calculate This

Pricing Formula

  • Material cost = Filament weight x (Spool price / Spool weight)
  • Electricity = (Wattage x Hours / 1000) x Rate per kWh
  • Machine wear = Print hours x Wear rate per hour
  • Labour = (Minutes / 60) x Hourly rate
  • Base cost = Material + Electricity + Wear + Labour
  • Selling price = Base cost x (1 + Markup%)

This gives you a cost-based selling price. Adjust the markup based on the complexity of the print, your quality, and market rates in your area.
