Abstract

This paper present the results of a study on the application of the Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) technique to select the best input parameters in Wire Electrical Discharge Machining (WEDM) 90CrSi tool steel. In the study, the Measurement of Alternatives and Ranking according to COmpromise Solution (MARCOS) method was used to solve the MCDM problem, and the Entropy method was used to calculate the weights of the criteria. In addition, six input parameters are required: the cutting voltage VM, the pulse on time Ton, the pulse off time Toff, the servo voltage SV, the wire feed WF, the feed speed SPD, and the workpiece cutting radius R. In addition, a 27–2 design experiment was carried out and a total of 32 different experimental setups were performed. The MCDM problem has been solved. The best experimental setup, according to the results of this work, is experiment no. 7 with the following input parameters: VM = 9 V, Ton = 12 s, Toff = 13 s, SV = 25 V, WF = 8 mm/min, SPD = 4.5 mm/min, and R = 9 mm.
