3D printing cost depends primarily on filament used, print time (electricity), and post-processing. FDM is the most common consumer method using thermoplastic filaments like PLA, PETG, or ABS.

Công thức

Filament cost = Weight used (g) x Cost per kg / 1000

Hướng dẫn từng bước

1Filament cost = Weight used (g) x Cost per kg / 1000
2Electricity cost = Print time (h) x Printer wattage (kW) x Rate ($/kWh)
3PLA: approx $20-25/kg; PETG: $25-35/kg; ABS: $25-30/kg; TPU: $30-50/kg
