An Integrated Fuzzy DEMATEL and Fuzzy TOPSIS Method for Analyzing Smart Manufacturing Technologies

I4.0 promotes a future in which highly individualized goods are mass produced at competitive price through autonomous, responsive manufacturing. In order to attain market competitiveness, organizations require proper integration of technologies and manufacturing strategy outputs (MSOs). Implementing such comprehensive relies on carefully selecting meet industrial requirements. There is little clarity the impact MSOs, literature provides attention this topic. This research investigates influence MSOs by combining reliable MCDM methods. uses combination fuzzy DEMATEL TOPSIS evaluate MSOs. The theory implemented deal with uncertainty vagueness human judgment. FDEMATEL was utilized identify interrelationships determine criterion a’s weights, while approach employed rank technologies. According study’s findings, cost most critical factor determining MSOs’ followed flexibility performance. On other hand, additive (AM) best technology for competing global market. results present an evaluation model analyzing relative important weight multiple factors They can also assist managers concentrating influential Technology preserve competitiveness.
