Taguchi is Obsolete

Taguchi is Obsolete

With today’s software and problem solving methodologies, there is no reason to be teaching or using Taguchi methods. They have a range of limitations and assumptions, and better options exist and are easy to use. Watch this video to learn more! Avoid falling for the sales pitch for yesterdays tools. No reason to limit your options and your learning. [Read more…]

How to Set Up a DOE

How to Set Up a DOE

How to Set Up a DOE

To be innovative, you need to resolve competing requirements. How does someone do that through testing? Over 20 years ago, we created a process that has worked for us and countless others when applying Design of Experiments. These tidbits may help you accomplish more in your new product development.

Manufacturing Projects

Manufacturing Projects

How do I know your projects are valuable?

We have resolved many manufacturing issues. Why do I need DOE to do this? How can we better get to root cause? Each section below contains a 2-minute video to expand on the topic provided.

Why use Design Of Experiments?

Design of Experiments is the best tool for resolving problems when our science and experience fails us. Even if we are right, we also need to prove our approach works to others. Today that includes proof with statistical confidence. We need to be efficient to reduce excessive prototypes, scrap and downtime.

Achieving Innovation

Achieving Innovation

We want to be more innovative – but how?

Many companies talk about their desire for Innovation. Can Design of Experiments (DOE) help in that process? Each section below contains a 2-minute video to expand on the topic provided.

Too often, we manage on hope

How often do we hear a design or process development team express optimism – “We are almost there!” And how long does that same response continue without progress? The key is to decide when we have tried long enough using informal methods. Predictability and confidence are important to achieve project success.
