In this study, the selection of drying ovens for can gaskets is made at a production plant of tin cans. Among the available three drying oven types, i.e. horizontal, vertical and induction, the optimum type is determined for purchase with the objective of the best suiting the needs of the can production plant. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is employed, and the importance of the critical and dominant criteria is determined. In this way, the optimum type of the drying oven is identified. Results are discussed and summarized based on the current practices used in the tin can production industry.
