The consumer market has changed drastically in recent times. Consumers are becoming more demanding, and many companies are competing to be market leaders. Therefore, companies must reduce rejects and minimize their operating costs. One problem that arises in producing plastic parts is controlling deformation, mainly in the form of shrinkage due to the material and warpage associated with the geometry of the parts. This work presents a novel extended adaptive weighted sum method (EAAWSM: Extended Adaptive Weighted Summation Method) integrated into a Pareto front model. The performance of this model is evaluated against three other conventional optimization methods—Taguchi–Gray (TG), Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), and Model Optimization by Genetic Algorithm (MOGA)—and compared with EAAWSM. Two response variables and three input factors are considered to be analyzed: material melting temperature, mold temperature, and filling time. Subsequently, the performance is compared and its behavior observed using Moldflow® simulation. The results show that with the EAAWSM method, the shrinkage is 15.75% and the warpage is 3.847 mm, regarding the manufacturing process parameters of a plastic part. This proposed deterministic model is easy to use to optimize two or more output variables, and its results are straightforward and reliable.
