The findings of a study on the application of the MCDM technique to select the best input parameters in wire-cut electrical discharge machining (wire-cut EDM) 90CrSi tool steel are presented in this paper. The TOPSIS method was used in the study to solve the MCDM problem, and the Entropy method was used to compute the weights of the criteria. In this work, six input parameters including the cutting voltage VM, the pulse on time ton, the pulse off time toff, the servo voltage SV, the wire feed WF, the feed speed SPD, and the workpiece cutting radius R were investigated. Also, a 27-2 design experiment was performed and a total of 32 experimental runs were conducted. The MCDM problem was solved. According to the findings of this study, the best experimental setup is experiment No. 7 with the following input parameters: VM=9 (V), Ton=12 (s), Toff=13 (s), SV=25 (V), WF=8 (mm/min), SPD=4.5 (mm/min), and R=9 (mm).
