Abstract
The paper discusses the evaluation of potential benefits of mass production automation where a specified set of automation tools is used. Automata operation efficiency, their cost and lifetime are allowed for. The algorithm developed enables the selection of automata set ensuring minimum product cost. The estimate of minimum attainable manufacturing cost is calculated.
