ℹ️ How It Works & Cost Explanations
Filament Amount & Cost: Measures how much raw physical plastic your model uses. The engine calculates the material component via (Grams × Cost per kg / 1000) and incorporates your custom flat Shipping Cost directly into the final material line item[cite: 1].
Print Time & Power Allocation: Accounts for machine usage and electrical grid consumption. The sub-calculator determines your baseline machine burn rate via (Printer Watts / 1000) × Electricity Cost per kWh to determine a clean hourly factor, which is multiplied instantly by total runtime hours.
Design & Labor Amortization: If Batch Production Mode is disabled, upfront engineering and physical prep labor costs are applied entirely to a single invoice[cite: 1]. When enabled, upfront engineering fees and machine setup hours are split evenly across your Expected Sales Volume. This ensures your recurring physical overheads (material and power) are accurately coupled with distributed development costs to give a balanced per-unit production cost profile.
