Abstract
This research addresses some of the critical issues when attempting to design and build an automated design-to-cost (ADTC) system. Such a system must interact with other computerized elements of manufacturing; hence the research begins a description of the various components with which the ADTC must interface. Such components include feature-based modeling, group technology, computer-aided process planning, and various product costing models, including Activity Based Costing, Parametric Costing and Target Costing. Next, the elements of an ADTC model are presented, along with issues regarding the need for intelligent database integration, including features for knowledge-based CAD and CAMM linkage, and a formal product knowledge database. Finally, the research creates a total product cost model using costable design attributes.
