Objet Studio enables you to calculate the time and material resources
needed for producing trays before sending them to the printer. The time it
takes Objet Studio to perform this calculation depends on the number of
objects on the tray and their complexity. Calculating the production
estimate for a full tray could take up to 15 minutes, depending on your
computer's specifications.
To calculate the time and materials needed for producing the current
tray:
On the Tray Settings ribbon, in the Build Process group, click
While the estimate is being calculated, a progress bar is displayed—on
the right side of the status bar (at the bottom of the screen).

When Objet Studio finishes calculating the production resources, the
results are displayed in the Estimated Consumptions group on the Tray
Settings ribbon.
