hobby.3d-printing-cost Calculator
Calculates the total cost of a 3D print from filament mass, electricity consumption, machine depreciation, and labour time. Filament is rarely the dominant cost — machine depreciation and failure rate often add more than the material itself.
Inputs
Material G
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
Material Cost Per Kg
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
Print Time Hrs
Duration of the process. Make sure units match the rate inputs (seconds, minutes, or hours).
Electricity Kwh
Rate of energy transfer (W). P = V×I (electrical). P = F×v (mechanical). 1 horsepower ≈ 746 W.
Results
total print cost
The combined total across all inputs and components.
material cost
The total monetary cost computed for the given inputs.
electricity cost
The total monetary cost computed for the given inputs.
cost per gram
The total monetary cost computed for the given inputs.
print time
The computed duration or time value.
tip
Gratuity amount — the suggested amount to add to the bill as a service tip.
