3D print cost calculator

Estimate filament and electricity costs using your own prices, print weight, duration and printer power.

Enter all values yourself, in the displayed currency. Use the net filament weight of the spool and average power over the print, not the power supply rating.

Enter your values, then calculate.

Method and limitations

Filament cost = used weight / net spool weight × spool price. Electricity cost = printer power in W / 1000 × duration in h × price per kWh. Total = filament + electricity. All prices are entered by you; no market price is assumed. This excludes labour, wear, failed prints, other consumables and fixed charges. Use measured energy consumption divided by print duration to estimate average power.
