For the more effective cost management and control of product platform, on the basis of modular product family (MPF) realization process and the cost of product family, the cost estimation model of modular product family was proposed. The manufacturing and management cost of component part level, module level and product level was estimated, and summed up to the cost of product family. Finally, a case of wheeling loader product family was illustrated to demonstrate the validity of the model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
