Cost simulation in product design
Currently, the importance of front-loading in product development and design is increasing. The estimation software "Cost Simulator" is a tool that simulates changes in material costs due to the selection of materials and material types, as well as changes in processing costs based on the shape, dimensions, and precision of parts when creating drawings during the design phase. In design, a target cost is set, and it is required to pursue the optimal cost to achieve that target. The estimation software "Cost Simulator" allows for checking the degree of achievement against this target cost for machined products and confirming changes in costs due to modifications in the drawings. As a result, it helps designers to consider cost-conscious product development.

Company information
We provide practical guidance on achieving target costs in product development, assessing and evaluating purchase prices in procurement, improving costs during the manufacturing stage, and advancing market development, with a focus on the manufacturing industry and enhancing profitability from the perspective of product and component costs. When advancing cost improvement activities for products and components, it is essential to first understand what costs make up the cost of those products or components. Then, we eliminate waste, inefficiency, and inconsistency from the factors that constitute the cost. As a result, cost reductions can be achieved. Our company offers guidance on cost management and provides estimation software for calculating the costs of products and components, aiming to enhance the efficiency of cost analysis.
