title = "Analysis of manufacturing costs for powder metallurgy (pm) gear manufacturing processes: a case study of a helical drive gear",
abstract = "This paper presents a thorough manufacturing cost analysis for a powder metallurgy (PM) manufactured gear (using press and sintering technique—P/S), through a case study of a R&D 4th drive gear (a helical gearwheel) utilizing both real usage data from six companies and some estimated data from literatures. The chosen costs calculation method, performance part costing (PPC), is comprehensive and designed to follow the manufacturing process routes. The result is an excel based cost calculation tool for analysis of performance driven manufacturing costs for use by practitioners with the capability of serving as a decision support system (DSS) in production development issues. The impacts of three scenarios of (1) gear rolling process automation, (2) overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) parameters improvement and (3) increase in energy price on the total PM gear manufacturing costs are simulated, results are presented and discussed, sensitivity analyses are performed, and outcomes are further discussed.",
