  1. Taguchi’s Definition of Quality –or lack thereof “ The loss a product causes society after it is shipped ” Loss due to • Variability in function 2) Harmful side effects

  2. Noise –Sources of Functional Variation • Inner or deterioration noise (2) Outer or environmental noise (3) Variational or piece to piece variation caused during manufacture

  3. Examples Refrigerator temperature control inner noise – leakage & mechanical wear of compressor parts outer noise – use conditions, frequency of opening, what stored, ambient temp., voltage variation etc. variational noise – tightness of door, amount of refrigerant, imperfection in compressor parts etc. Automobile Brakes inner noise – wear of drums and pads, leakage of fluid outer noise – road conditions, speed of car, weight etc. variational noise – fits, variation in friction coefficient etc.

  4. Controllable input factors Process Input Output y Uncontrollable input factors

  5. Activities Where Counter Measures to Noise are Possible X – No Countermeasure Possible O – Countermeasure Possible

  6. Robust Parameter Design Experiments

  7. Simulated Noise factor H represents position in the kiln - = in the center, + = near kiln walls where temperature is higher Total of 27-4 = 8×21 = 16 measurements

  8. Total of 9×8=72 tests

  9. Output RTresistance at which the relay turns on

  10. Levels for noise factors ±2.04% of nominal setting Example: when control factor A is 2.67 low level of noise factor A is (1.0-0.0204)×2.67=2.62 high level of noise factor A is (1.0+0.0204) )×2.67=2.72

  12. Noise Factor Array when =

  13. H = - (inner kiln position), H = + (outer kiln position) response = number of defective per 100 tiles

  14. Effects on the mean Positive Effect

  15. Effects on the loge(var) Positive Effect

  16. Conclusion: increasing the content of lime from 1% to 5% reduces the average percentage of defective tiles, and reduces the variability in percentage of defective tiles caused by the temperature gradient in the kiln.

  17. Data written in a single array format

  18. No replicates of whole plots, therefore analysis is conducted by making separate normal plots of whole-plot effects and sub-plot effects as described in Sections 8.4 and 8.5.

  19. Response Modeling with Multiple Noise Factors

  20. Standardize orthogonal contrasts by dividing by the square root of the Number of replicates of each level of the factor in the design. This makes the (X 'X) a 72×72 Identity matrix

  21. Fit a model to the largest effects identified on the normal plot

  22. Interpretation of Results
