Abstract

Application of AHP, Fuzzy AHP and PROMETHEE Method in Solving Additive Manufacturing Process Selection Problem

Highlights

  • By additive manufacturing (AM) technology it is possible to make products with complicated geometry in relatively short time

  • Solving of such a problem is possible by using multicriteria decision methods which result in ranking of alternatives

  • Rapid prototyping presents creating of conceptual prototypes that spatially show basic concept of some idea or innovation and functional prototypes that are used for evaluating quality and ergonomics properties and functions of future products

Summary

Introduction

By additive manufacturing (AM) technology it is possible to make products with complicated geometry in relatively short time. For that purpose 3D product model data developed by the Computer Aided Design (CAD) is required. Additive manufacturing processes do not require machining technology processes planning, development of tools and molds, specific machining equipment, logistics and warehousing activities planning etc. Rapid prototyping presents creating of conceptual prototypes that spatially show basic concept of some idea or innovation and functional prototypes that are used for evaluating quality and ergonomics properties and functions of future products. Rapid manufacturing generates fully functional finished products or tools which can be implemented in their practical application immediately after production process completion. Some of the basic advantages of additive technology are time
