Price bulk orders
Compare quantities while protecting your margin and reviewing the assumptions.
On this page
Start with a recipe you trust
Maker and higher include Compare bulk quantities in the calculator. First enter the materials, print time, labor, packaging, fees and other costs for your current recipe. The comparison uses these inputs; it does not change or save them.
Set capacity and quantities
Finished units per full plate set means the number of complete products you can produce using one set of the recipe’s plates. For a product made from several plates, a set includes all of them. Confirm the capacity in your slicer. Enter up to six different whole order quantities separated by commas, such as 1, 10, 25 and 50.
Read the recommendation
Each comparison shows the recommended unit price, product subtotal, order profit, net margin, expected printer-hours and profit per printer-hour. Prices meet your margin and minimum price/profit targets after modeled fees. When a larger order has a lower unit price, the comparison shows its reduction relative to the smallest order. There is no guaranteed bulk discount if your costs or minimum price prevent one.
Review before sending a quote
Material, waste and print time scale directly with finished units. Plate handling rounds up to complete sets. Per-unit labor, components, packaging and fees scale with quantity; setup, overhead, shipping and per-order components remain fixed. Failed-print reserves still apply. No faster printing or cheaper shipping is assumed.
Use the results as a planning comparison. Check larger-order slicer totals, shipping and packing requirements before preparing a customer quote. Comparison rows are not automatically saved or added to a quote.
Test your price and export
Maker includes recommended quantity comparisons. Pro and Studio also let you enter a selling price to compare its profit and margin at every quantity, then export the comparison as CSV.
Copy a recommended unit price from a quantity card when preparing a customer price. Review shipping and the scaling assumptions before using a bulk estimate in a quote. Comparisons themselves are not saved.
