Taguchi Method

The Taguchi Method is a strategy for improving the quality of products and processes through systematic experimentation. Developed by Japanese engineer Genichi Taguchi, it focuses on minimizing variation and improving consistency. By using designed experiments, it identifies factors that significantly affect performance, allowing for adjustments that enhance quality while reducing costs. The method emphasizes robust design, meaning products can maintain performance despite variations in manufacturing or environmental conditions. In essence, the Taguchi Method helps organizations create better products with fewer defects, leading to higher customer satisfaction and reduced waste.
