Abstract This paper concerns the modelling of cost-tolerance data for various manufacturing processes and the optimisation of process sequences based on minimum production cost. A natural spline model representing the cost-tolerance relationship is introduced. A methodology to optimise the process sequences is developed using an expert system approach. An example to illustrate the methodology and the optimisation model is presented
