Along with the widespread use of Taguchi methods in product design, deenition of the loss function has been integrated with numerous models which require quality cost estimation. In this paper, the economic-statistical design of a variable sampling X-bar control chart is extended using the Taguchi loss function to improve chart eeectiveness from a quality cost point of view. The eeectiveness of...

Dr Taguchi is a Japanese engineer and an international quality consultant who has made breakthrough improvements in product and process quality through the use of statistical design of experiments (SDOE). The Taguchi method became popular in the West in the 1980s as a means to design robust products and processes. Although many companies and industries have used the method with success, the rea...

for all industrial processes, modelling, optimisation and control are the keys to enhance productivity and ensure product quality. in the current study, the optimization of process parameters for improving the conversion of isoeugenol to vanillin by psychrobacter sp. csw4 was investigated by means of taguchi approach and box-behnken statistical design under resting cell conditions. taguchi desi...

Calibrations to existing cost of doing business in space indicate that to establish human presence on the Moon and Mars with the Space Exploration Initiative (SEI) will require resources, felt by many, to be more than the national budget can afford. In order for SEI to succeed, we must actually design and build space systems at lower cost this time, even with tremendous increases in quality and...

Purpose – To solve the trade-offs between marketing and R&D domains and to minimize information loss in new product development (NPD), this study proposes an integrated design process as a new solution to the interface system between the two domains. Design/methodology/approach – House of Quality integrated with multivariate statistical analysis is used for determining important design features...

Drilling thrust force calculations require a large amount of experimental work, which can be greatly reduced, since an extensively validated CAD-based approach, using the DRILL3D software application, has become available. DRILL3D calculates the thrust force of both the cutting areas of the tool (main edges and chisel edge) simultaneously, which means that every simulation can substitute two se...

The specific effect of chemical and physical factors on amidase production from Geobacillus subterraneus RL-2a was investigated using design of experiments (DOE) methodology. The one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) method was used to study the effects of carbon and nitrogen sources on amidase production. Subsequently, optimal levels of physical parameters and key media components, namely temperature, p...

In today’s competitive world, the industries should have production systems which are capable of versatility, high production rate, precision and ability to produce highly finished goods. Due to this the value of input machining parameters responsible for the desired surface finish & material removal rate becomes critical. Present paper presents a study on parametric optimization of the End Mil...

In his pioneering work on product and process improvement, Taguchi (1986) emphasizes two types of factors that effect product quality: “control factors” are those variables that can be (easily) manipulated by the manufacturer and “noise factors” are those variables that represent either different environmental conditions that affect the performance of a product in the field or (uncontrollable) ...
