QUALITY ENGINEERING USING ROBUST DESIGN

“Robust product design and robust factory processes are the most important improvements now taking place in United States industries. They are key to further large improvements in quality, and to the critical objective of reducing time to market. Dr. Phadke’s book is the first written originally in English and based on American experiences to explicitly address the systematic improvement of robustness. This book fills a great need for an introduction to the development of robustness, and should be read by executives of manufacturing companies. Dr. Phadke’s book is a clear introduction to a subject that is essential for competitiveness in today’s international economy.”
