How much does nylon filament cost?

Due to the specialized nature, Nylon can be somewhat expensive and you should expect to pay between $80 and $110 USD per kilogram.

How much does it cost to 3D print?

3D printing can cost anywhere from $3 up to thousands of dollars. It’s hard to get the exact cost of a 3D print without a 3D model. Factors such as material, model complexity, and labor affect the price of 3D printing. 3D printing services can sometimes cost more than an entry level 3D printer.

How much does 3D resin printing cost?

While vat polymerization can produce very high-resolution prints, one big drawback is the cost of the resin. Standard 3D printing resin for these machines can vary quite widely, but on average, it costs approximately $50 per kg.

How much does it cost to 3D print per inch?

The average cost for thermoplastic model filament will range from $3.50 to $7.50 per cubic inch. Because FDM printers require the use of support material, it is necessary to include the cost of support material filament, which will cost around the same as model filament.

What should I charge for 3D printing?

So, the final service fee for our new 3D printing service was set to be $3 up to 1 hour of 3D printing + $1 per additional hour of 3D printing. The $3 is broken down to $1 per hour of 3D printing that accounts for the filament cost and $2 fixed cost for every 3D print job.

How much does 3D printing cost per gram?

$0.20 per gram for standard (0.2mm) resolution; $0.30 per gram for high (0.1mm) resolution.

How much does 1KG of resin print?

You can 3D print around 120 to 140 tabletop figurines or minis with 1 liter of resin, each model having a height of around 1 inch. If you 3D print cubes with a 1cm x 1cm dimension, then you can print 500 cubes of that size. Larger models can require 100ml+ of resin in one go.

Is 1kg of filament a lot?

Some extra perspective, you could print around 400 average sized chess pieces with a 1KG spool of filament. If you measure how long your 3D printer filament lasts in printing hours, I’d say on average you could get around 50 printing hours.
