How are your prices calculated?


The price depends on several criteria which are:

  • The real quantity of material used for the final objects
  • The whole quantity of material used for the manufacturing process
  • The time that takes the machine for the manufacturing process
  • The time spent to manufacture, control the quality and pack up your order
  • The material in which you want your object (white or black plastic, multicolored material)


This process prevents overtaxing orders in order to make up the wasted space we could use for other customers; we try to be as fair as possible.
This might seems complicated but don’t worry, the price is automatically calculated based on your model! All you have to do is to upload your item to get a accurate quotation.
