How to Reduce 3D Printing Cost: 8 Tips

You will save the most by reducing volume (hollow walls), ordering several parts together, choosing standard production and the right technology.

  1. Hollow part – 2–3 mm walls and powder escape holes.
  2. Several parts in one order – the minimum order value is spread across them.
  3. Quantity – discounts apply from 5 units.
  4. Standard production instead of rush.
  5. Technology matched to purpose – FDM for a low-cost prototype, MJF for series.
  6. Compact shape – in powder bed technologies, overall dimensions affect the price.
  7. Standard finish, if appearance is not critical.
  8. Compare options – use “Compare options” in the configurator.
