The aPriori Manufacturing Insights Platform automates and simulates the entire production process for a digital twin CAD model. The heart of the platform is its Digital Factories which generate an array of manufacturing data that can be used by product design teams, cost engineers and sourcing specialists to make better decisions daily. What are Manufacturing Insights? aPriori’s Manufacturing Insights Platform simulates each step of the product manufacturing…
aPriori is more or less an automated and self-driven tool. It uses data in VPE, logic, and constraints in the cost model to give the cost. If CAD model is there, it makes your job easy. It is possible to estimate the cost of 1000s of parts with one click using bulk costing …
I haven't used any other costing tool apart from aPriori so far, but I've heard tools like GeneralCOST Estimator are also available in the market for costing.
Currently, we have not evaluated any other software since aPriori gives most of the things that we want. The kind of reports it gives has enormous information which is used in the discussions & for concrete decisions. Mostly the cost outliers are easy to identify if we take the …
