The 3D Printing Cost Calculator – powered by krausgedruckt – gives you a quick and easy overview of the *real* total costs of your 3D printing projects, including material, labor, and operating costs. Want more? Then PLUS is just right for you. This paid add-on package (one-time purchase, no subscription) allows you to save calculations, bundle them into projects, use profiles, and gain clarity about your profit. Since version 1.7, you can also import your G-code files and add images to your calculations afterwards. Note: PLUS is an optional one-time purchase. As promised, the core functionality – calculating the cost of 3D prints – will always remain free. As with *all* of my software, I place great importance on protecting your data. The app is completely ad-free, I don’t track you, and I don’t collect any personal data. If you like the app, you can support me by purchasing PLUS, buying a 3D printer through the app, or leaving a tip via an optional in-app purchase. My promise: Even if more paid features are added in the future, the core function – calculating 3D printing costs – will remain free forever.
