Q4.
A manufacturer of tennis rackets intends to set 45 lb tension in one of its product
lines. The company spends £60,000 for total warranty (merchandise returned for out
of specification tension). A sample data from monthly production of 32000 rackets
show the following readings:
45 50 54 46 47
48 (unit: lb)
To improve the product, the owner invested £220,000 in a new assembly operation
which produced the following samples:
43
46
45 44
45
44.5 (unit: lb)
a) Using Taguchi loss function to calculate how much saving the investment has
produced, using Lav = k· MSD ≈ k[s² + (5 m)²], where Lap is the average
Taguchi loss; MSD is the Mean Squared Deviation;k is the constant in Taguchi
loss function.
b)
Perform a t-test to see if there is a significant difference in quality due to two
different assembly operations (significance level a=0.05) (t-distribution table
attached in Fig. Q4 below). The t-test statistic is given by:
(3₁-3₂)-Da
(+9)
where -(n-1)²+(n₂-1) s
m+m₂-2
