In the contemporaneous sustainable manufacturing scenario and fourth industrial revolutions, requirements of most cutting-edge CNC machine tools are indispensable for finished products with high accuracy, precision and green complaints in particular. Such requirements have impelled the advanced manufacturing industries to evaluate and choose the proper CNC machine tools for best customized performances. In the face of proper and effective green evaluation, this paper incorporates a heterogeneous expert group based decision framework considering multiple significant technical and green criteria by assessing relative importance of diverse conflicting criteria having substantial contribution in performance analysis of CNC machine tools. As a demonstration of the suggested mathematical model, three real life decision making problems related to 3 axes-CNC machine tools based on the collected quantitative and linguistic data from catalogues, manufacturer’s portals, questionnaires, customer reviews etc. are established. The calculated findings are close to those obtained by previous researchers as well as are verified by well-established techniques. Besides, sensitivity and statistical analysis are performed to examine the robustness and stability of the ranking orders of the alternatives as well as to investigate the efficacy and consistency of the proposed method. Hence thus proposed formulated MCDM approach proves to be a highly effective and reliable decision making tool for choosing the most suitable CNC machine tools.
