Manufacturing process selection for pet bottles using analytical hierarchy process

This thesis discusses on manufacturing process selection of PET bottles using AHP. There are six factors to be considered which are geometry of the design, production characteristics, cost consideration, material, ease of maintenance, as well as availability of equipments and labors. The main object...

The main objective of this project is to select the most appropriate manufacturing process for PET bottles based on these factors.

Injection molding has a priority weight of 21.84% and then followed by blow molding (19.24%), stretch blow molding (17.52%), and lastly is injection blow molding (12.82%).
