Stratasys® Fortus® Material Cost Calculator
An independent calculator for estimating material cost per cubic inch ($/in³) and converting it into cost per part on Stratasys® Fortus® systems.
Select model + support materials, then enter the model and support volumes (in³) reported by Insight or GrabCAD Print. Pricing is based on publicly listed 92ci canister references and verified Fortus®-compatible materials.
Built for teams running ABS-M30®-class workflows and high-temperature polymers like ULTEM™ 9085 and ULTEM™ 1010 across Fortus® 360mc, 380mc, 400mc, 450mc, 900mc, and F900 platforms.

How to Use These Cost per Cubic Inch Numbers
This calculator turns $/in³ into a real cost per part using the model and support volumes reported by Insight or GrabCAD Print.
Formula: (Model in³ × $/in³) + (Support in³ × $/in³) + (Build hours × $/hr, optional)
After you run the numbers, use them to:
• Compare ABS-M30® vs alternatives on the same geometry
• See how support volume affects total cost
• Compare materials using cost per cubic inch instead of just canister price
Tip: In Insight or GrabCAD Print, copy the values labeled Model volume and Support volume (in³). Leave build time blank to calculate material cost only.
