Lean Design
of Experiments (Lean DOE)
Six Sigma and Lean Design for Six Sigma are initiatives that have
had a huge impact on industry during the last 15 years. Classical
Design of Experiments on the other hand was introduced nearly 100
years ago and has gradually evolved in the decades that followed.
Thanks to powerful software, much has just changed in this arena.
Computer generated designs allow us to conduct incredibly efficient
experiments in comparison to classical full and fractional designs.
Mixed levels for factors can be readily accommodated as well as
infeasible experimental regions. More than two or three levels can
be accommodated for factors. Multiple responses can be traded-off
with ease.
With Lean Design for Six Sigma's focus on customer requirements
and functional trees, Lean DOE approaches can be utilized to quickly
optimize functions and assure adequate robustness.
In this session attendees will learn how to apply state-of-the-art
Lean DOE approaches in the product and process development arena.
Our instructors have taught thousands about these approaches and
have lead many successful applications.
Efficient and effective application of experimental design require
a blending of key skills. Knowledge of the relevant technologies,
team communication skills, and some simple mathematical tools all
come into play (in this session we rely upon the computer to crunch
the numbers while we focus on interpretation of key graphics and
output tables).
