Abstract A new cost-tolerance model, which closely links with real technological process, is built using fuzzy neural networks. The influence of process factor on the manufacturing cost is analyzed and a fuzzy process factor is introduced using fuzzy mathematics principle. Then fuzzy neural network is applied to modeling of production cost-tolerance model. The inputs of the network are tolerance and fuzzy process factor and the output is manufacturing cost.
