SYNOPSIS
Robust Engineering is the creation of world renowned Japanese quality guru Dr. Genichi Taguchi. This workshop outlines some important concepts and case studies of Taguchi Methods used by organizations that are at the cutting edge of technologies and continuing to lead the way using Robust Engineering. The expectation of robust engineering is to minimize the variations to the products function. The robust engineering will focus on optimizing the energy and result to the optimum products function. By doing this, it will enhance the basic and performance need of customers and it will minimize the cost of failure in the market. This is in line with the philosophy of Dr Taguchi: “The engineered quality of a product is assessed by estimating the loss imparted by the product to the society from the time the product is shipped”. The workshop aims to illustrate the basic of Taguchi method for improving robustness of the products, process and the system and then eliminate loss to society due to cost of poor quality. The workshop is based on case studies particularly in the automotive and manufacturing industries.
OBJECTIVE
At the end of the session, participants will be able to:
1. Understand the concepts of Robustness with Taguchi Method in products design 2. Appreciate the idea of Design for Quality and able to minimize the product failure in the market 3. Optimum the products functions by minimizing the design variations of the products
AIM
The aim of the workshops is to help participants understand the relationship of the energy function, noise factor and control factor to the ideal function and able to optimize it in order to minimize cost of failure in the market.
SPEAKERS
Khairur Rijal is currently an associate professor at the Genichi Taguchi Centre of Quality and Sustainability in Razak Faculty of Technology and Informatics, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia. He received his bachelor degree in Mechanical Engineering from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) in 1996. After working with Proton, he was offered an academia position at UTM. He obtained his M.Sc in Advanced Mechanical Engineering from the University of Warwick, UK and PhD from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. He received direct guidance on robust quality engineering from the son of Dr Genichi Taguchi and he was blessed by the family to establish Genichi Taguchi Centre for Quality and Sustainability in UTM. His research interest is on Quality and Sustainability.
