Abstract

Introduction. Trends in the development and application of modern machine-building systems somehow create the problem of analysis and choice in the presence of alternative objects, or with a large number of comparison criteria - indicators of the effectiveness of objects or systems. The main difficulties in optimizing the solution for designing production systems depend on complex technological problems: a large number of influencing factors and the absence of patterns. The choice of effective objects and systems is often a complex and multi-criteria process that requires a lot of time and, as a result, reduces the efficiency of the organization of production preparation. In this regard, for the preparation and adoption of technical and economic decisions of various complexity in production conditions, a systematic approach is required using the most rational forms and methods of organizing production. The purpose of the work: to create a generalized methodology for the criteria analysis of multivariant systems. The methods of investigation. A methodology is proposed aimed at improving the efficiency of the organization of pre-production due to a reasonable choice from a large number of options. The choice of a rational solution option is based on the ranking of indicators by priority at the time of making a reasonable decision in a specific situation and the type of object and system under consideration. Indicators can be variable, taking into account the specifics of production. Results and Discussion. A comparative analysis of the process of edge cutting machining of the STEF-1 fiber-glass polymer composite material with an interlocking side mill carrying various insert materials is conducted as an example of the practical application of the proposed methodology. As comparison parameters, the period of technological tool life, cutting performance and reduced costs in the implementation of cutting are taken. According to the results of a comparative multi-criteria analysis carried out according to the presented method, it follows that the priority in the system under consideration with the specified parameters for the implementation of the technology is the tool equipped with WC–3Co alloy inserts, which has the highest value of the weight criteria coefficient. According to the results of the analysis, a tool equipped with WC–2TaC–6Co alloy inserts is close in rationality, which allows recommending it as an analogue when choosing. The scope of the proposed application of the methodology is seen if it is necessary to analyze complex multivariant systems/objects. The objects/systems can be both variants of scientific solutions under various conditions of comparability, as well as design, technological solutions, structural and instrumental materials at the selection stage in the design and technological preparation of production, variants of the system implementation algorithm. The comparison parameters can be physical, mechanical, technological, operational properties; technical, economic and quality indicators; specific characteristics and parameters. The proposed technique will reduce the time for making new decisions under varying production conditions. The use of the methodology with known and well-defined parameters characterizing multivariant systems makes it possible to algorithmize, and subsequently automate, the process of organizational and technological preparation of production.
