A team is currently working to redesign a compressor assembly cell. The team has several design changes that they want to test using design of experiments. They want to decrease the cell’s assembly and packing throughput
- time. Currently, it takes 45 minutes to assemble and pack a compressor. The team is considering three changes:
Reduce current 36 inch conveyor width to either 18 inch or 24 inch;
Install new parts presentation shelving, either flat surfaced or angled
Line form: either straight or curved
Implement the first four steps of the experiment design process in slide 15. Comment on how to interpret and verify the results.
