Robust Design: An introduction to Taguchi Methods
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The theoretical foundations of Taguchi Methods were laid out by Genichi Taguchi, a Japanese engineer who began working for the telecommunications company, ECL (Electrical Communications Lab, a part of NT&T), in 1950’s. After World War II, his team was involved in the design of telephone system components, and successfully produced designs that performed better than their main rivals, Bell Labs, of the US.

Optimization of Hardness Strengths Response of Plantain Fibres Reinforced Polyester Matrix Composites (PFRP) Applying Taguchi Robust Design
Volume fraction of fibres (A), aspect ratio of fibres (B) and fibres orientation (C) are considered as control factors in the determination of hardness strength, hardness strength of plantain fiber reinforced polyester composites (PFR P). These properties were determined for plantain empty fruit bunch (PEFB) and plantain pseudo stem (PPS). Hardness tests were conducted on the replicated samples...

Every engineering design is subject to variations that can arise from a variety of sources, including manufacturing operations, variations in material properties, and the operating environment. When variations are ignored, non robust designs can result, which are expensive to produce or fail in service. The concept of robust design may be first used by Taguchi. He introduced this concept to imp...

1 32.3 Taguchi’s Robust Design Method Since 1960, Taguchi methods have been used for improving the quality of Japanese products with great success. During the 1980’s, many companies finally realized that the old methods for ensuring quality were not competitive with the Japanese methods. The old methods for quality assurance relied heavily upon inspecting products as they rolled off the product...
