Reduction in cost of quality by using robust design

Document from the year 2015 in the subject Engineering - System Science grade: 8.46 CGPA Saraswati College Of Engineering course: MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS ENGINEERING language: English abstract: The present paper proposes a systematic design framework for cost of quality that embeds Taguchi's method and other robustness criteria to reduce the overall COQ of a product.Robust Design is defined as reducing variation in a product without eliminating the causes of the variation. In other words making the product or process insensitive to variation. This in turn increases the overall quality of a product making the product robust.
