The 3D Print Time Estimator predicts FDM print duration from model volume, layer height, infill percentage, and print speed. Real-world print time depends on extrusion volumetric rate (mm³/s) and slicer settings; this calculator gives a baseline ±20% estimate before slicing.

Formula

Time (min) = Volume × (0.3 + 0.7 × Infill) / (Speed × Layer × 0.4 × 60) × 60
