Abstract

In this paper, we show that it is possible to obtain an optimal configuration variant of Modular Strongrooms (MSR) that satisfies the individual requirements of customers and is most economically advantageous for manufacturers. A model of the automatic configuration system for configuring MSR type MODULPRIM was developed, integrating the procedures for generating product variants, choosing the optimal configuration, and designing detailed products and technological processes. The developed model's importance lies in its ability to automatically select the optimal configuration from a set of possible configurations on a multidisciplinary basis. The problem of choosing was solved by integrating the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) methods from the group of Multi-Attribute Decision Making (MADM). Validation of the proposed model was performed on eight examples of Modular Strongrooms type MODULPRIM 5 and showed great opportunities to improve efficiency and effectiveness in the process of innovative product development, as well as to obtain a product configuration with significantly improved quality. The proposed model has a high degree of flexibility and universality; thus, it can be further upgraded and integrated into a company's business system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
