Sales Forecast and Layout Analysis of a Damper Manufacturing Industry for Autonomous Transport

Abstract

Technological advancements in the field of transport and mobility are numerous with advancements and improvements in every possible scope. The subsystems of vehicles are a constant area of research for improvement, by the fact a new development in the field of magnetorheological fluid dampers has been proposed in published previous research. The proposed design of the damper and its features can capture the market with proper background planning to establish a small-scale manufacturing industry. This paper deals with discussing and planning a layout to establish an industry and to analyze the break-even sales quantity based on the inquired costs. The market sales analysis is performed using a different parameter that affects sales figures. Employing the bass business model to the discussed conditions the different sales scenarios are predicted and analyzed to come up with strategic plans to alter the sales trends in the time of declension. The potential outcomes and suggestions are discussed to conclude a complete background study to establish a small-scale automotive industry.
