Plastics calculators.
Quick, practical estimates to plan a part: volume and weight, tooling break-even, throughput, and mold shrinkage. They're rough by design; when you're ready for real numbers, we'll quote it.
Tools
Estimate in seconds.
Enter your numbers and results update live. Material presets are typical values. Your part may differ.
Part volume & weight
Estimate solid-part volume and mass by material, and total resin for a run.

Tooling break-even
Compare a tooled process (molding) against no-tooling fabrication to see which wins at your volume.

Break-even qty

Rough comparison from your inputs, not a quote.
Cycle & throughput
Estimate output and run time from cycle, cavitation, and efficiency.
n/a
Throughput
n/a

Mold shrinkage
Size a cavity from the part dimension and material shrink rate.
n/a
Cavity dimension

Added for shrink
Cavity = part ÷ (1 − shrink). Typical values; actual varies by grade, geometry, and process.
