A hybrid fuzzy AHP-PROMETHEE decision support system for machine tool selection in flexible manufacturing cell

The selection process of a suitable machine tool among the increased number of alternatives has been an important issue for manufacturing companies for years. This is because the improper selection of a machine tool may cause many problems that will affect the overall performance. Inthis paper, a de...
