DOE Design of Experiments


DOE training provides the concepts needed to effectively perform improvements in your process and has been
widely used to quickly identify important factors and to determine the best values of them in order to optimize the
performance of a product or process. Much of our knowledge about products and processes in the engineering and
scientific disciplines is derived from experimentation. An experiment is a series of tests conducted in a systematic
manner to increase the understanding of an existing process or to explore a new product or process. Design of
experiments (DOE), then, is the tool to develop an experimentation strategy that maximizes learning using a minimum
of resources. DOE is widely used in many fields with broad application across all the natural and social sciences. It is
extensively used by engineers and scientists involved in the improvement of manufacturing processes to maximize
yield and decrease variability. Often engineers also work on products or processes where no scientific theories or
principles are directly applicable. Experimental design techniques become extremely important in such studies to
develop new products and processes in a cost effective and confident manner.

DOE Principles
The design and analysis of experiments revolves around the
understanding of the effects of different variables on another variable.
In technical terms, the objective is to establish a cause-and-effect
relationship between a number of independent variables and a
dependent variable of interest. The dependent variable, in the context
of DOE, is called the response, and the independent variables are
called factors. Experiments are run at different factor values, called
levels. Each run of an experiment involves a combination of the levels
of the investigated factors, and each of the combinations is referred to
as a treatment. Repeated observations at a given treatment are called
replicates. The number of treatments of an experiment is determined
on the basis of the number of factor levels being investigated.

DOE Types
There are several types of design, each of which has an application:

 One Factor – for comparison (Anova)


 Factorial – Factor screening
o General Full Factorial
o Two Level Full Factorial
o Two Level Fractional Factorial
o Plackett-Burman
o Taguchi's Orthogonal Arrays
 Response Surface Method – for optimization
 Robust Parameter - for Product or Process Robustness
 Reliability Tests DOE – for QALT Tests
 Optimal Custom - for Experiments with Constraints

DOE Stages
Designed experiments are usually carried out in five stages:
 Planning
 Screening
 Optimization
 Robustness Testing
 Verification
