CLUE GENERATION TOOLS
Multi-vary
Experiments
to reduce a larger number of unknowns and unmanageable causes of variation into a much
smaller of related variables containing the Red X (i.e most dominant cause.)
It is a graphical technique to zoom in to the most likely cause of the problem by eliminating
non-contributing causes of variation.
In most application, multi-vari technique acts as the first filter which later followed by other
clue generation tools.
Concentration
Charts
Sequel to Multi-vary Experiments. It is used to pinpoint repetitive defects
by location or components
Determines how a product/process is running; a quick snapshots without massive historical
data and can be substitute for replace process capability studies in some white collar
applications
Normally used when the Red X is within-unit
Min 9 to 15 or until 80% of historic variation is captured.
Component
Search
From hundred of thousands of components/ subassemblies, home in the Red X, capturing
the magnitude of ALL important main effects and interaction effects.
Normally used when there are two differently performing assemblies ( labeled as good
and bad) with interchangeable components (electric motors, suspension system of a
car..)
Typically use at prototype, engineering pilot run, production pilot run, or in field.
Require only 2 samples One(1) good unit and one(1) bad unit

CLUE GENERATING TOOLS
Paired Comparison
Used to identify the Red X when the good and bad units, assembly or
subassembly cannot disassemble and reassemble without damaging or
destroying or radically changing the good and bad units properties.
Use in situation where there are two differently performing assemblies (
labeled as good and bad) incapable of interchangeable of the
components.
Commonly used in New product and/or process design production, field,
support services, administrative works, farms, hospital, and schools.
It is a logical sequence to component search, when the Red X, distilled
from the system, subsystem, and subassembly component search, cannot
be disassemble any further.
Sample size required : 12 to 16 - 6 to 8 good units and 6 to 8 bad
units in rank order.
Product Process Search
To identify important product variables identified with paired comparison.
To identify important process variables associated with 8 good and 8 bad
products.
Commonly used in situation where it is difficult to isolate important process
variables with multi-vari
Typically used during prototype, engineering pilot run, production pilot run,
in field or in full production
Sample size required: Sufficient units through a process to produce 8
good units and 8 bad units and their associated process parameters

FORMAL DESIGN OF EXPERIMENT TECHNIQUES
Variable Search
Excellent problem prevention tools normally used to Pinpoint the Red X,
Pink X etc.
Capture the Magnitude of all important main effects and interaction
effects. Of the red X, pink X etc.
To identify any unimportant factors so that their tolerances can be
liberated to reduce cost.
Normally used when there are High Number of variable to investigate (
5 to 20 variables).
Application in white collar work (off-line quality control).
Typically used in R& D , Development engineering, Product Process
Characterization in Production .
For pinpointing the Red X after Multi-Vari or Paired Comparison
experiments have been conducted.
Sample Size required - 1 to 20

FORMAL DESIGN OF EXPERIMENT TECHNIQUES
B versus C
Basically used as Verification Tool.
To predict how much better a given product or process is than
another, with confidence of 90% or higher.
To assure the permanency of an improved product or process over a
previous one.
To select one product or process over another, even if there is not
improvement in quality, because of some tangible benefits, such as
cost or cycle time.
To evaluate more than just two product, processes, materials
(B,C,D,E etc) simultaneously
Full Factorial
To determined which of the 2,3 or 4 variables - filtered through one
or more clue-generation techniques- are important and which are
unimportant;
To open up tolerance of the unimportant variables to reduce costs;
To quantify the magnitude and desired direction of the unimportant
variables and their interaction effects, and to tighten the tolerance
of these variables to achieve a Cp, Cpk = 2.00 and more;
Investigative tool at design or prototype stage where samples
are limited for other clue-generating tools.;
Note: Even though Full factorial experiment is a problem-solving
tool, it is not recommended to use it as a start of a problem
investigation bypassing other clue generation tools.

DOE FOR OPTIMIZATION
Scatter plot
Used to establish Realistic Specifications and Realistic Tolerances.
Used to adjust or Tighten the Tolerances of the important
product/process or Red X variables to achieve high Cpks.
Open up the Tolerances of the unimportant variables to reduce cost.
Response Surface Methods
(RSM)
To determine the BEST combinations of levels of two or more
INTERACTING input variables ( identified in previous DOE
experiments) to achieve a maximum, minimum , or optimum Green Y
( Response, output and Green Y are the same terms).

TRANSITION FROM DOE TO SPC
Positrol
The POSITROL plan determines:
a) WHAT the variable characterized and optimized through
previous DOE experiment.
B) WHO should be performing the monitoring, measuring and
recording each of important variables.
C) HOWdetermines the correct instrumentation to measure
these important variables( observing the 5:1 rule ).
D) WHERE determine optimum location of measuring the
process parameters so that it truly reflects the correct value.
E)WHEN is the frequency of measurement, determine initially
by engineering judgment, but later by pre-control.
Process Certification
Use process certification to eliminate the Peripheral Causes of
Variation and Poor Quality such as:
Management/supervision inadequacy
Violation of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP)
Plant/Equipment inattention
Environment Neglect
Human Shortcomings
STATISTICAL PROCESS CONTROL
SPC: Pre-Control
The use of simple and cost effective pro-control chart and reaction
plan to ensure the process sustain the improvement achieved.
Typically at the last stage of improvement process.
