Abstract

The cellular manufacturing (CM) is a well known manufacturing technology that helps to improve manufacturing flexibility and productivity by maximum utilisation of available resources. Cellular manufacturing (CM) has been derived as a strong tool for increasing production in batches and job shop production. In cellular manufacturing, similar machines are grouped in machine cells and same processing parts are gathered in part families. In this paper factors of CMS are identified through AHP technique. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is a theory of measurement through pairwise comparisons and depends on the decision of experts to find out priority scales. The derived priority scales are synthesised by multiplying them by the priority of their parent nodes and adding for all such nodes. In this paper, a decision-making model is being proposed for CMS evaluation and selection. This strategic decision-making model is based on both hypothetical and factual criteria and uses the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) approach.
