Abstract
Process windows in injection molding are habitually built with only one performance measure in mind. In reality, a more realistic picture can be obtained when considering multiple performance measures at a time, especially in the presence of conflict. In this work, the construction of process windows for injection molding (IM) is undertaken considering two and three performance measures in conflict simultaneously. The best compromises between the criteria involved are identified through the direct application of the concept of Pareto-dominance in multiple criteria optimization. The aim is to provide a formal and realistic strategy to set processing conditions in IM operations. The resulting optimization approach is easily implementable in MS Excel. The solutions are presented graphically to facilitate their use in manufacturing plants.
期刊介绍:
Production & Manufacturing Research: An Open Access Journal provides a high-quality platform for academics, researchers, and industrial practitioners working on production and manufacturing research topics to publish their work globally under a fully open access model. The journal ensures that every article undergoes a rigorous but rapid peer review process by a team of experts who share the cross-disciplinary scope of the publication. The intent is to foster innovation, debate and collaboration across the field whilst maintaining a defined and relevant audience for the topics and findings reported. The journal encourages the submission of original articles, reviews, short communications and case studies in all areas of manufacturing engineering and technology, operations research and management, supply chain performance management, lean manufacturing, production systems and automation, quality control, logistics, research methodologies, manufacturing strategy, sustainable engineering, project management & scheduling and cross-disciplinary research between these fields.
