3D Print Cost & Profit Estimator

免费3D打印定价计算器。

何时使用

Use when listing a new product on Etsy or quoting a custom job. Re-run with different markups to see your margin sensitivity.

与其他指标对比

Spreadsheets do this math but require setup. This is a 60-second quote tool.

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

工作原理

Material cost = (spool price ÷ spool grams) × object grams. Electricity cost = (watts ÷ 1000) × print hours × $/kWh.

Failure buffer is a % surcharge on top of material + electricity. Labor is computed from prep/post-process minutes.

Suggested retail = raw cost × (1 + markup %). Etsy hobby sellers typically use 50–100% markup.

常见问题

What's a reasonable markup?

Etsy hobby sellers typically use 50–100% markup over raw cost. Adjust for product complexity and competition.

Is the wattage estimate realistic?

Bambu Lab printers average ~120 W; Ender-3 ~250 W during heating. The default is a balanced estimate.

How is the filament cost per print figured out?

It takes your model weight as a fraction of a full spool and multiplies by the spool price; a 25 g part from a 1 kg spool that cost 20 uses about 0.50 of filament. Failure buffer and wear allowance are then added on top.

Why include a failure buffer in the price?

Some prints warp, clog, or fail partway and waste filament and time, so charging only for perfect prints leaves you losing money over a batch. A small percentage buffer spreads that expected loss across every successful sale.

示例

输入

$25/kg spool, 80g model, 12-hour print, 120 W printer, $0.15/kWh, 10% failure, $15/hr labor, 50% markup.

输出

Raw $4.78 → Retail $7.17.

Material $2.00 + electricity $0.22 + failure buffer $0.22 + labor $7.50 (12-hour weighted) = $9.94, then markup. The number depends heavily on labor — the example uses a conservative slow-hourly.

常见陷阱

  • Doesn't include packaging or shipping — add those separately.
  • Etsy fees (~6.5%) take a bite — bump markup to account for them.
  • Labor estimate is rough — track real prep/post-process time for accuracy.
