A General Economic Model for Manufacturing Cost Simulation

  • Conference paper

Abstract

The described technical-economic model clarifies the influence of different production technological factors on the processing cost of a part. Influential factors can be weighted against each other, which leads to different production development scenarios and their effects on the processing cost can be studied. This implies a way to generate a basis of decision by which a company can base their production related development goals. The model describes influence of technical factors on the manufacturing cost and thereby represents the important link between technical development and economy.
