Manufacturing process decisions

How do we choose the specific manufacturing processes?

How do the selected materials influence the choice of manufacturing processes?

Would product function or performance issues influence our choice of processes?

What criteria should we use to select processes?

Which criteria are more important? Who will make the final decisions?

Parts undergo sequence of processes

Primary - alter the (“raw”) material’s basic shape or form. Sand castingRollingForgingSheet metalworking

Secondary - add or remove geometric features from the basic forms

Machining of a brake drum casting (flat surfaces)Drilling/punching of refrigerator housings (sheet metal)Trimming of injection molded part flash

Machining – removal of material…

Sawing –using a toothed blade.Milling – from a flat surface by a rotating cutter tool. Planing – using a translating cutter as workpiece feeds.Shaping - from a translating workpiece using a stationary cutter. Boring - increasing diameter of existing hole by rotating the workpiece.Drilling- using a rotating bit forming a cylindrical hole.Reaming – to refine the diameter of an existing hole.Turning - from a rotating workpiece. Facing - from turning workpiece using a radially fed tool. Grinding - from a surface using an abrasive spinning wheel.Electric discharge machining - by means of a spark.

Manufacturing costs

Total Manufacturing Cost = Material + Tooling + Processing

raw mat’ls molds labor  fixtures electricity jigs supplies tool bits O/H

(deprec.)

TMC = M + T + P (6.1)

Material costs per part

Let M = total materials costs (raw, bulk) q = production quantity

Then material costs per part, cM is

cM = M/q = (cost/weight x weight) / number of parts

Let’s reorganize the variables in the equation above cM = [cost/weight] [weight/number of parts]

= (cost/weight) (weight/part), and therefore cM = cost/part

Material cost per part (continued)

Let cw = material cost per unit weight, and wp = weight of finished part ww= weight of wasted material, scrap = ratio of wasted material weight / finished weight = ww / wp

Then the material cost per part, cM iscM = cw (wp + ww ) = cw (wp + wp )

(6.2)cM = cw wp (1+ )

(6.3)

e.g. sand casting cM = ($1/lb)(1lb/part)(1+.05) = $1.05/part

Tooling cost per part

Let T= total cost of molds, fixtures per production run q = number of parts per run

Then cT= T/q (6.4)

e.g. sand casting cT = ($10,000/run) / (5000 parts/run) = $2.00/part

Processing cost per part

Letct = cost per hour, (machine rate + labor)t = cycle time (hours per part)

then cP = ct t (6.5)

e.g. sand casting cP = ($30/hr) (0.3 hrs/part) = $9/part

Total cost per part

Cost per part,

c = cM + cT + cP

c = cw wp (1+ ) + T/q + ct t (6.6)

e.g. sand casting

c = $1.05 + $2.00+ $9.00

c = $12.05 / part

How can we lower the cost of parts?

c = cw wp (1+ ) + T/q + ct t (6.6)

1) purchase less expensive materials,2) keep our finished part weight low3) produce little manufactured waste4) design simple parts that result in less expensive

tooling 5) make many parts production run (i.e. batch)6) choose a manufacturing process that has a low

cycle time & cost per hour

Goal: minimize the sum of the terms!(not any one term in particular)
