چکیده

Variation source identification for manufacturing processes is critical for product dimensional quality improvement, and various techniques have been developed in recent years. Most existing variation source identification techniques are based on a linear faultquality model, in which the relationships between process faults and product dimensional quality measurements are linear. In practice, many dimensional measurements are actually nonlinearly related to the process faults: For example, relational dimension measurements such as the relative distance between features are used to monitor composite tolerances. This paper presents a variation source identification methodology in the presence of these relational dimension measurements. In the proposed methodology, the joint probability density of the measurements is determined as a function of the process parameters; then, series of statistical comparisons are performed to differentiate and identify the variation source. A case study is also presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the methodology. DOI: 10.1115/1.2844591

Diagnosing Manufacturing Variation Using Second-Order and Fourth-Order Statistics

This article discusses a method that can aid in diagnosing root causes of product and process variability in complex manufacturing processes, when large amounts of multivariate in-process measurement data are available. A linear structured model, similar to the standard factor analysis model, is used to generically represent the variation patterns that result from the root causes. Blind source ...
