Resumen
Los métodos de soldadura son comunes en las líneas de producción, lo que permite unir componentes con diversas propiedades que afectan la calidad, la seguridad y el rendimiento. Existen técnicas como el arco eléctrico, la inducción, el gas, el GTAW y el GMAW, cuya selección depende de las características y necesidades del proceso, lo cual puede ser complejo debido a los múltiples requisitos a cumplir. Este trabajo busca identificar los atributos de los métodos de soldadura con el fin de ponderar alternativas y, a través de un método de toma de decisiones multicriterio, elegir la tecnología más adecuada para un proceso específico. En particular, se usó el método AHP para la ponderación de criterios encontrados en la literatura y después se aplicó el método TOPSIS para seleccionar las alternativas consideradas. Al final del artículo, se muestra la mejor alternativa de acuerdo con los requerimientos de la estación de unión de componentes.
