How to Use This Calculator

Enter your PCB length (mm), PCB width (mm), and the height of the tallest component (mm).
Set wall thickness (mm) and infill percentage (%) for the structural properties you need.
Enter filament cost per kg to calculate material cost for the enclosure.
Review external enclosure dimensions, material weight (g), filament length (m), and print cost.

How the result changes with PCB Length (mm)

PCB Length (mm): Length of the circuit board to enclose.
PCB Width (mm): Width of the circuit board to enclose.
Tallest Component (mm): Height of the tallest component above the PCB (including connectors, heatsinks).
Wall Thickness (mm): Enclosure wall thickness (2-3mm typical; use multiples of nozzle width, e.g. 0.4mm).
Infill (%): Internal fill density for solid sections (20% typical, higher for structural strength).
Filament Cost ($/kg): Cost per kilogram of filament (PLA ~$20-30/kg, PETG ~$25-35/kg).

Enclosure Length (mm): External length including walls and PCB clearance.
Enclosure Width (mm): External width including walls and PCB clearance.
Enclosure Height (mm): External height including top/bottom walls and component clearance.
Material Weight (g): Estimated PLA filament weight needed.
Filament Length (m): Length of 1.75mm filament needed.
Material Cost ($): Filament cost based on weight and price per kg.
Est. Print Time (min): Estimated FDM print time at typical speed.
Total Cost ($): Material plus electricity cost.

Identify Input Parameters
4 parameters
PCB Length (mm) = 70, PCB Width (mm) = 50, Tallest Component (mm) = 25, Wall Thickness (mm) = 2.4 = 6 input(s) provided
Calculate Enclosure Length
Enclosure Length = internalLength + 2 * wallThicknessMm
77.8 = 77.8
Calculate Enclosure Width
Enclosure Width = internalWidth + 2 * wallThicknessMm
57.8 = 57.8
Calculate Enclosure Height
Enclosure Height = internalHeight + 2 * wallThicknessMm
31.3 = 31.3
Calculate Material Weight
Material Weight = volumeCm3 * plaDensity
60.8 = 60.8
