  1. Why/When is Taguchi Method Appropriate? A new tip Every Friday Friday, 22nd June 2001

  2. Tip #10 Taguchi Method Performs Process “centering” or “fine tuning”(next 6 slides) Friday, 22nd June 2001

  3. Taguchi MethodPerforms Process “centering” or “fine tuning” “centering” or “fine tuning” of a process MEANS DETERMINING : THE CENTRAL VALUES OF CONTROL FACTORS TO ACHIEVE REPEATABLE PERFORMANCE even when THE LEVELS OF CONTROL FACTORS HAVE SOME “VARIATIONS” AROUND ITS CENTRAL VALUES Please note that this is different than making the process ROBUST againstNoIsEin general ”Centering” or “Fine Tuning” covers only the CONTROL FACTORS

  5. THE FACTOR EFFECT PLOT using S/N RATIO INDICATES • THE RATE AT WHICH A PARTICULAR CONTROL FACTOR LEVEL AFFECTS THE S/N RATIO i.e. VARIANCE • BEST SETTINGSARE SELECTED (AS SHOWN BT ) • FOR EACH CONTROL FACTOR • EACH SELECTED SETTING IMPLIES reduced VARIANCE S / N RATIO  A1 A2 A3 B1 B2 B3 C1 C2 C3 D1 D2 D3

  6. Mean  A1 A2 A3 B1 B2 B3 C1 C2 C3 D1 D2 D3 • THE FACTOR EFFECT PLOT using Mean INDICATES • THE RATE AT WHICH A PARTICULAR CONTROL FACTOR LEVEL AFFECTS THE Mean (AS INDICATED BY SLOPE) • BEST SETTINGSARE SELECTED (AS SHOWN BY ) • BY using S/N RATIO PLOT • EACH SELECTED SETTING IMPLIES reduced VARIANCE • BUT COULD AFFECT THE Mean SIGNIFICANTLY • SLOPE AT A1 IS LARGE • SLOPE AT B2 IS MEDIUM • SLOPES AT C3 AND D2 ARE SMALL

  7. Mean  S / N RATIO  A1 A2 A3 B1 B2 B3 C1 C2 C3 D1 D2 D3 • THE FACTOR EFFECT PLOTS (S/N RATIO AND Mean) • CLEARLY INDICATE THAT • CONTROL FACTOR ‘B’ HAS small EFFECT ON S/N RATIO • and A LARGE EFFECT ON Mean • ‘B’ IS AN ADJUSTMENT FACTOR AND CAN BE USED FOR ADJUSTING MEAN-ON-TARGET

  8. Shape of this curve depends on the control factor settings Y – Large variation in Y Nominal Settings Y Y Increasing S/N ratios Y – small variation in Y Y Y Best Settings B B – Variation in B B Taguchi Method Internal noise in control factor B and its effect on output Y
