Six Sigma Strategy
Designs of Experiments help the Belt to understand the cause and
effect between the process output or outputs of interest and the vital few inputs. Some of these causes and effects may include the impact of interactions often referred to synergistic or cancelling effects.
Reasons for Experiments
This is reoccurring awareness. By using tools we filter the variables of defects. When talking of the Improve Phase in the Six Sigma methodology we are confronted by many designed experiments; transactional, manufacturing, research.

The Analyze Phase narrowed down the many inputs to a critical few, now it is necessary to determine the proper settings for the vital few inputs because:
– The vital few potentially have interactions.– The vital few will have preferred ranges to achieve optimal results.– Confirm cause and effect relationships among factors identified in
analyze phase (e.g. regression)
Understanding the reason for an experiment can help in selectingthe design and focusing the efforts of an experiment.Reasons for experimenting are:
– Problem Solving (Improving a process response)– Optimizing (Highest yield or lowest customer complaints)– Robustness (Constant response time)– Screening (Further screening of the critical few to the vital
few X’s)

Desired Results of Experiments
Here we have models that are the result of designed experiments.
Many have difficulty determining DOE models from that of physical models. A physical model includes: biology, chemistry, physics and usually many variables, typically using complexities and calculus to describe. The DOE model doesn’t include any variables or complex calculus: it includes most important variables and shows variation of data collected. DOE will focus on the specific region of interest.
DOE Models vs. Physical Models
Designing Experiments
Problem Solving– Eliminate defective products or services.– Reduce cycle time of handling transactional processes.
Optimizing– Mathematical model is desired to move the process response.– Opportunity to meet differing customer requirements (specifications or
VOC).Robust Design
– Provide consistent process or product performance. – Desensitize the output response(s) to input variable changes including
NOISE variables.– Design processes knowing which input variables are difficult to maintain.
Screening– Past process data is limited or statistical conclusions prevented good
narrowing of critical factors in Analyze Phase
When it rains it PORS!
Designed experiments allows us to describe a mathematical relationship between the inputs and outputs. However, often the mathematical equation is not necessary or used depending on the focus of the experiment.
What are the differences between DOE modeling and physical models?– A Physical model is known by theory using concepts of
physics, chemistry, biology, etc...– Physical models explain outside area of immediate project
needs and include more variables than typical DOE models.– DOE describes only a small region of the experimental
space.
The objective is to minimize the response. The physical model is not important for our business objective. The DOE Model will focus in the region of interest.

Definition for Design of Experiments
One Factor at a Time is NOT a DOE
Design of Experiment shows the cause and effect relationship of variables of interest X and Y. By way of input variables, designed experiments have been noted within the Analyze Phase then are executed in the Improve Phase. DOE tightly controls the input variables and carefully monitors the uncontrollable variables.
Let’s assume a Belt has found in the Analyze Phase that pressure and temperature impact his process and no one knows what yield is achieved for the possible temperature and pressure combinations.
If a Belt inefficiently did a One Factor at a Time experiment (referred to as OFAT), one variable would be selected to change first while the other variable is held constant, once the desired result was observed,
Designing Experiments
Design of Experiments (DOE) is a scientific method of planning and conducting an experiment that will yield the true cause-and-effect relationship between the X variables and the Y variables of interest.
DOE allows the experimenter to study the effect of many input variables that may influence the product or process simultaneously, as well as possible interaction effects (for example synergistic effects).
The end result of many experiments is to describe the results as a mathematical function.
y = f (x)
The goal of DOE is to find a design that will produce the information required at a minimum cost.
Properly designed DOE’s are more efficient experiments.
One Factor at a Time (OFAT) is an experimental style but not a planned experiment or DOE.The graphic shows yield contours for a process that are unknown to the experimenter.

the first variable is set at that level and the second variable is changed. Basically, you pick the winner of the combinations tested.
The curves shown on the graph above represent a constant process
yield if the Belt knew the theoretical relationships of all the variables and the process output of pressure. These contour lines are familiar if you’ve ever done hiking in the mountains and looked at an elevation map which shows contours of constant elevation. As a test we decided to increase
temperature to achieve a higher yield. After achieving a maximum yield with temperature, we then decided to change the other factor, pressure. We then came to the conclusion the maximum yield is near 92% because it was the highest yield noted in our 7 trials.
With the Six Sigma methodology, we use DOE which would have found a higher yield using equations. Many sources state that OFAT experimentation is inefficient when compared with DOE methods. Some people call it hit or miss. Luck has a lot to do
with results using OFAT methods.

Types of Experimental Designs
Value Chain
DOE is iterative in nature and may require more than one experiment at times.
As we learn more about the important variables, our approach will change as well. If we have a very good understanding of our process maybe we will only need one experiment, if not we very well may need a series of experiments.
Fractional Factorials or screening designs are used when the process or product knowledge is low. We may have a long list of possible input variables (often referred to as factors) and need to screen them down to a more reasonable or workable level.
Full Factorials are used when it is necessary to fully understand the effects of interactions and when there are between 2 to 5 input variables.
Response surface methods (not typically applicable) are used to optimize a response typically when the response surface has significant curvature.
Designing Experiments
The most common types of DOE’s are:– Fractional Factorials
• 4-15 input variables – Full Factorials
• 2-5 input variables – Response Surface Methods (RSM)
• 2-4 input variables
Fractional Factorials
Full Factorial
ResponseSurface
The general notation used to designate a full factorial design is given by:
•Where k is the number of input variables or factors.– 2 is the number of “levels” that will be used for each
factor.• Quantitative or qualitative factors can be used.
DOE is iterative in Generally noted is 2 to the k and k is number of input variables or factors and 2 is the number of levels all factors used. If the experiment called for 3 factors, each with levels, it would be 2 cubed designs; as the number of experimental runs are shown by the MATH denoted. Two levels and four factors are shown at the bottom of our slide; by using the notation, how many runs would be involved in this design? 16 is the answer, of course.

Visualization of 2 Level Full Factorial
Let’s consider a 2 squared design which means we have 2 levels for 2 factors. The factors of interest are temperature and pressure. There are several ways to visualize this 2 level Full Factorial design. In experimenting we often use what’s called coded variables. Coding simplifies the notation. The low level for a factor is minus one, the high level is plus one. Coding is not very friendly when trying to run an experiment so we use uncoded or actual variable levels. In our example 300 degrees is the low

The representation here has two cubed designs and 2 levels of three factors and shows a treatment combination table using coded inputs level settings. The table has 8 experimental runs. Run 5 shows start angle, stop angle very low and the fulcrum relatively high.

Back when we had to calculate the effects of experiments by hand
it was much simpler to use coded variables. Also when you look at the prediction equation generated you could easily tell which variable had the largest effect. Coding also helps us explain some of the math involved in DOE.
Fortunately for us, MINITABTM
calculates the equations for both coded and uncoded data.

Main Effects Plot’s Creation
In order to create the Main Effects Plot we must be able to calculate the average response at the low and high levels for each Main Effect. The coded values are used
to show which responses must be used to calculate the average.
Let’s review what is happening here. How many experimental runs were operated with the start angle at the high level or 1. The answer is 4 experimental runs shows the process to run with the start angle at the high level. The 4 experimental runs running with the start angle at the high level are run number 2, 4, 6 and 8. If we take the 4 distances or process output and
take the average, we see the average distance when the process had the start angle running at the high level was 2.34 meters. The second dot from the left in the Main Effects Plots shows the distance of 2.34 with the start angle at a high level.

Interactions occur when variables act together to impact the output of the process. Interactions plots are constructed by plotting both variables together on the same graph. They take the form of the graph below. Note that in this graph, the relationship between variable “A” and Y changes as the level of variable “B” changes. When “B” is at its high (+) level, variable “A” has almost no effect on Y. When “B” is at its low (-) level, A has a strong effect on Y. The feature of interactions is non-parallelism between the two lines.

Degrees of Interaction Effect
with the green arrow above we must find the response data when the fulcrum is set low and start angle is set high (notice the color coding MINITABTM
uses in the upper right hand corner of the plot for the second factor). The point indicated with the purple arrow is where fulcrum is set high and start angle is high. Take a few moments to verify the remaining two points plotted.
Let’s review what is happening here. The dot indicated by the green
arrow is the mean distance when the fulcrum is at the low level as indicated by a -1 and when the start angle is at the high level as indicated by a 1. Earlier we said the point indicated by the green arrow had the fulcrum at the low level and the start angle at the high level. Experimental runs 2 and 4 had the process running at those conditions so the distance from those two experimental runs is averaged and plotted in reference to a value of 1.2 on the vertical axis. You can note the red dotted line shown is for when the start angle is at the high level as indicated by a 1.
Degrees of interaction can be related to non-
parallelism and the more non-parallel the lines are the stronger the interaction.
A common misunderstanding is that that the lines must actually cross each other for an interaction to exist but that’s NOT true. The lines may cross at some level OUTSIDE of the experimental region, but we really don’t know that.

Based on how many factors you select MINITABTM
will create a number of interaction plots.
Here there are 3 factors selected so it generates the 3 interaction plots. These are referred to as 2-
way interactions.
MINITABTM
will also plot the mirror images, just in case it is easier to interpret with the variables flipped. If you care to create the mirror image of the interaction plots, while creating interaction plots, click on “Options”
and choose “Draw full interaction plot matrix”
with a checkmark in the box. These mirror images present the same data but visually may be easier to understand.

It is easy to generate full factorial designs in MINITABTM. Follow the command path shown here. These are the designs that MINITABTM
will create. They are color coded using the Red, Yellow and Green. Green are the “go”
designs, yellow are the “use caution”
designs and red are the “stop, wait and think”
designs. It has a similar meaning as do street lights.
