Dear Friends,

If you are a current practitioners of the TAGUCHI DOE, or otherwise have application questions on DOE or Qualitek-4 software and/ or you wish to share your knowledge on the subject, you may want to join this group.

Since the early 1980's the Taguchi experimental design method has become a popular technique among industrial practitioners of product/process design optimization and problem solving. Today, engineers and scientists in all fields learn and apply this technique mainly based on their own effort of self-study using avaiable textbooks and other literture.

During my training & consulting activities for last two decades, I have responded to many questions on 'HOW TO APPLY' the technique and continue to receive such requests. While there are several web sites offering free information and working software, there is no discussions group that capture and share routine application issues and their solutions.

My interest in establishing this site is to provide a forum where expert users may post questions and answers and be maintained by those who use and benefit from such discussions.

Guidelines:
- Any one involved in scientic reserach, engineering studies or general quality improvement effort, can join to become a member.
- As a member you can post your questions.
- As a member you can also answer questions and post comments on questions and answers.

Hope you join and make it a self-sustaining learning site.
