Question 33

Question

The first Taguchi's publication dates from [blank_start]1950s[blank_end]. This approach to DoE was not introduced in the USA or Europe until the early [blank_start]1980s[blank_end]. Taguchi promoted statistical techniques from an [blank_start]engineering perspective[blank_end], in contrast to the [blank_start]statistical perspective[blank_end] of the DoE of the moment. Taguchi developed a methodology for solving problems, which he called: [blank_start]Quality Engineering[blank_end].

Answer

1950s
1980s
engineering perspective
statistical perspective
Quality Engineering
Systematic Engineering

Question 34

Question

Taguchi basic concepts:

Answer

Pareto principle
A quality product is one that causes a minimum loss to society throughout its life.
He breaks down his “quality engineering” strategy into system, parameter and tolerance designs.
He strongly opposes the use of fractional factorial designs
The objective of experimenting is to achieve a target value minimizing variability.
