The correct selection of an optimal combination of joining technologies at the body in white process planning stage is critical for the overall quality and cost of a new car. This paper considers cost analysis of new design concepts in the preliminary phase of the automotive Product Development Process (PDP) followed by further optimal selection of appropriate joining technology. An optimisation approach to facilitate the design process will be discussed. The proposed approach can be useful for design and process planning engineers when selecting different joining technology combinations in the process of designing an automotive manufacturing system. It can lead to significant reduction of the manufacturing costs.
