3d print, pricing calculator PETG
Southern Technology
3D Print Cost Estimator
A transparent way to estimate the real cost of 3D printing. Change any of the rates or assumptions below to suit your own job or business.
Why are the rates visible?
We believe customers should be able to understand how a price is built.
This calculator openly shows labour, machine, material and markup assumptions
so you can see the real cost of producing a part rather than treating 3D printing
as simply the cost of filament.

This estimator is provided to help customers, designers and manufacturers understand the real costs involved in 3D printing.
A calculated estimate is not a guarantee that a part is suitable for manufacture, and complex parts may require engineering review before a final quotation is issued.
