¿Cuánto cuesta la hora de impresión 3D?
La hora de una impresora FDM cuesta R$ 0,63: depreciación, energía y reserva por fallos. El cálculo completo, y por qué cobrar por hora suele ser un error.
One of the biggest mistakes beginners make when selling parts is looking only at the filament spool price. The real cost goes far beyond.
What makes up the cost
- Material actually used in the part.
- Energy: power × time × price per kWh.
- Depreciation of the machine per hour.
- Consumables and a reserve for failures.
- Labor for setup and post-processing.
Filament vs. resin, in practice
A consistent, quality filament avoids rework — which is what eats margins the most. Two references we use for pricing: Bambu Lab PLA Lite for FDM and ELEGOO Resin 2.0 for fine-detail work.
