Selection of the most suitable non-conventional machining process (NCMP) for a ceramics machining represents a multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problem. This paper describes the application of relatively novel MCDM methods for selecting the most suitable NCMP for the ceramics machining. By applying WASPAS and COPRAS methods, ten NCMPs (alternatives) were ranked based on the ten criteria. Comparison of obtained ranking performances with other MCDM methods used by previous researchers was carried out in order to demonstrate WASPAS and COPRAS applicability and capability for non-conventional machining process selection.
