Print Pricing Calculator

The calculator uses data from your production process. You only need to enter your machine specifications and costs once.
For example:

The platform automatically calculates the correct price.

In the calculator you work with machines that represent your production process. The system includes several machine types, such as:

For each machine you can define settings such as setup times, plate costs, machine output or colour usage. You can fully configure the machine with your own parameters. The system then automatically uses this data in all calculations.

The calculator supports different printing techniques and production steps.

For example:

• Production runs and quantities – calculation of required runs and machine output
• Colour modes and speed reductions – accounting for colour usage and its effect on production speed
• Perfector logic – support for double-sided printing in a single pass
• Waste calculation – calculation of start-up waste, trimming waste and spoilage
• Cost breakdown – insight into costs per production step such as machine usage, materials and finishing

This allows you to automatically calculate the production cost for the entire production process.

In the catalogue you manage all materials required to build and accurately calculate print products.

For example:

• paper types from different suppliers
• foils
• inks
• coatings

Once your products are calculated, the data can immediately be used in your sales and production processes:

• your own webshop (WhiteLabelShop)
• the Marketplace for resellers
• custom quotations for customers
• API integrations with external systems
• machines and production data
• production planning (for example shift schedules)

Many print companies struggle to quickly and consistently turn production costs into accurate sales prices. With the Prindustry calculator, you work from one central product database. You build your product catalogue, determine the production cost and set the sales price.

Using the same data, you can publish products directly to your sales channels and use the calculations in your production process.

This creates one workflow:
calculation -> assortment -> sales & production

Production cost calculation is connected to both your commercial process and your production planning.
