Özet

Abstract Machine selection is an important and difficult process for the firms, and its results may generate more problems than anticipated. In order to find the best alternative, managers should define the requirements of the factory and determine the necessary criteria. On the other hand, the decision making criteria for choosing the right equipment may vary according to the type of the manufacturing facility, market requirements, and consumer assigned criteria. This study aims to find the best machine alternative among the three machine offerings according to twelve evaluation criteria by integrating entropy method with SAW method. Keywords: Production Management, Entropy Method, SAW Method, Machine Selection.
