SYNOPSIS
Taguchi explained that robust design is an engineering methodology for optimising the product and process conditions which are minimally sensitive to the various causes of variation and which produce a high-quality product with low development and manufacturing costs. The Taguchi method is one of the applications employed so that the significance of the factor, or multiple factors, that affect the particular process’s performance can be statistically determined. This talk briefly introduce on the advantages of employing Taguchi method and who can benefit from this technique. Besides that, speaker will introduce basic application of Taguchi method in research field and industry.
