I tried out a demo of this one time and it was awesome. I think it can be configured to report the cost of your part.
In Reply to Chris Rees:
Is anyone using ModelCheck to determine rough order of magnitude cost?
Or better know of a 3rd party vendor that has a bolt on solution?
I would think that you can get model check to report the # holes,
material, X, Y, Z envelope dimensions and the part volume to get an idea
of how much material is removed. With those parameters and maybe a few
others you could have an algorithm that determined a rough order of
magnitude for part cost.
