Tips

1
Halving layer height roughly doubles print time but significantly improves surface quality.
2
20% infill is sufficient for most decorative prints. Functional parts may need 40-60%.

Open formula

Layers = Height / Layer Height
Path Length = (Perimeter × Walls + Infill) × Layers
Time = Path Length / Print Speed

Estimates total toolpath length from dimensions, wall count, and infill, then divides by print speed. Support structures add approximately 20%.
