IDENTIFICATION OF THE IMPACT OF THE AVAILABILITY FACTOR ON THE EFFICIENCY OF PRODUCTION PROCESSES USING THE AHP AND FUZZY AHP METHODS

Abstract

Maintenance has a key impact on the efficiency of the production processes because the efficiency of the machines determines the ability of the system to produce in accordance with the assumed schedule. The key element of the system performance assessment remains the availability of technological equipment, which directly translates into the efficiency and effectiveness of the performed production tasks. Taking into account the dynamic nature of manufacturing processes, the proper selection of machinery and equipment for the implementation of specific production tasks becomes an issue of particular importance. The purpose of this research was to determine the impact of technical and non-technical factors on the material selection of machine tools for production tasks and to develop a method of supporting the selection of production resources using the AHP and Fuzzy AHP methods. The research was carried out in a manufacturing company from the automotive industry.
