Taguchi Design Settings

For design of experiment, there are general options of all methods being setup. For this method, some additional options are required further:

• Control Level

  It defines max number of the discrete points for each stochastic parameter with the option "Design Parameter" = True. This parameter is called control factor. It must be more than 2 levels.

   

• Noise Level

  It defines number of the discrete points for each stochastic parameter with the option "Design Parameter" = False. This parameter is called noise factor. It must be more than 2 levels. 

   

• Factor Data

  A dialog will be opend to define the discrete points of control and noise factors in each level. If the level point is empty, OptiY will generate an orthogonal array without this level. Thus, user can define a mix-level orthogonal array.

  

   

• S/N Ratio

  The following options can be selected for signal to noise ratio:

  • Nominal the Best

  • Smaller the Better

  • Larger the Better
