extrusion volumetric flow calculator online
Use extrusion volumetric flow calculator online for line width mm, layer height mm, speed mm s. Rectangular bead approximation, not a slicer-specific rounded profile. Geometric or extrusion estimate; printer behavior and material properties must be measured. Example values are not recommended machine settings.
How to use it
Enter line width mm. Set layer height mm, speed mm s. Select Calculate and check the labeled output. Copy or download the JSON result.
Options and example settings
Calculation method
rectangular_flow_mm3_s = line_width_mm*layer_height_mm*speed_mm_s (^ means exponentiation; trig functions ending in d use degrees).
Worked examples
Apply extrusion volumetric flow calculator to the case below, keeping the displayed units and assumptions. Rectangular bead approximation, not a slicer-specific rounded profile.
Extrusion Volumetric Flow Calculator — worked case
Settings: layer height mm: 0.2; speed mm s: 50
Input:
0.45
Calculated result for these inputs:
Output:
{
"rectangular_flow_mm3_s": 4.500000000000001
}Choose the right tool
Match the calibration convention to the firmware and slicer. Rotation distance and steps per millimeter change in opposite directions. Flow, shrinkage and fit estimates require measurements from the actual machine and material.
Limitations and common mistakes
- Rectangular bead approximation, not a slicer-specific rounded profile. Geometric or extrusion estimate; printer behavior and material properties must be measured. Example values are not recommended machine settings.
- Use the displayed unit in every field. Ratios and percentages are different inputs; percent fields use values such as 25 rather than 0.25.
