Laser Cutter Job Cost & Margin Calculator

無料のレーザーカッター作業価格計算機。

使うべき場面

Use when quoting custom laser-cut work on Etsy or your storefront. Wholesale numbers help when selling to retailers.

他の指標との比較

Spreadsheet templates require setup. This is one-screen quoting.

Enter your values below. Calculations run locally as you type.

仕組み

Material cost = sheet price × % of sheet used. Power cost = (watts ÷ 1000) × run hours × $/kWh.

Machine wear is a $1.50/hour allowance covering tube life and consumables. Labor uses your hourly rate.

Retail = raw cost × (1 + markup %); wholesale defaults to 60% of retail.

よくある質問

What's the machine wear cost?

A $1.50/hour allowance covers tube life, cleaning consumables, and amortized maintenance for typical xTool/Glowforge-class machines.

How do I price design time?

Add it to labor — or charge a one-time setup fee on top of the per-piece retail price.

Should I price by the sheet or by the part?

Calculate your full per-sheet cost including material, power, wear, and labor, then divide by the number of finished parts that fit on the sheet. Pricing per part this way ensures offcuts and waste are still covered.

How much should I mark up for wholesale versus retail?

A common approach is to set retail at roughly double your total cost and wholesale at around 1.5 times cost, leaving the buyer room to apply their own retail markup. Adjust based on your local market and whether the buyer resells in volume.

実例

入力

$12 sheet, 30% used, 25-min run, 60 W, $0.15/kWh, $20/hr labor, 100% markup.

出力

Raw $11.62 → Retail $23.24.

Material $3.60 + power $0.04 + wear $0.63 + labor $8.33 (25 min weighted) → markup. Wear is the often-forgotten cost.

よくある落とし穴

  • Tube/lens replacement costs are wear-allowance estimates — track real consumables for accuracy.
  • Engraving vs. cutting have different time profiles — average them.
  • Bulk discounts on materials change the per-piece cost — re-run with realistic sheet pricing.
