Title:

A Multilayer Approach for Early Cost Estimation of Mechatronical Products

Author(s):
Braun, Stefanie C.; Lindemann, Udo
Abstract:
The approach presented in this paper enables interdisciplinary design teams to make their concept decision based on an early, but meaningful cost estimate of competing product concept alternatives. This assists in developing and producing products that are very likely not to exceed today’s tight target costs. The method considers the heterogeneity of mechatronical systems by integrating costs resulting from cross-domain product and process interfaces. Methods for early cost estimation from the d...     »
