Evaluation of Decision Making for Sustainable Manufacturing and Industrial Applications: Case Reviews & Propagations

Abstract: Manufacturing is the broad term and is usually used to describe removal of material from a work piece. Manufacturing includes cutting, abrasive processes (grinding), advanced machining processes (electrical, chemical, thermal, hydrodynamic, lasers). Manufacturing is required to improve dimensional accuracy and to produce external and internal geometric features with forming or shaping. Manufacturing helps in obtaining final dimensions and surfaces with finishing operations. Additionally, manufacturing assists in obtaining special surface characteristics or textures. Today, it is required to attain the most economical means of producing a particular part. In present study, a decision making for sustainable manufacturing and industrial applications is reviewed and propagated to disclose utility and importance of manufacturing setting. Six case reviews are examined to identify the prominent manufacturing aspects. The study is presenting a knowledge based decision making reviews for evaluating manufacturing operations.
