What is Design of Experiment for Injection Molding

When developing a new product using injection molding processes, the customer wants to achieve specific levels of product performance. The manufacturer wants to have a certain level of production efficiency. The end user wants to have reliable performance of the product in the field. 

All three groups want to accomplish these things within a reasonable budget and time-frame. Design of Experiment is a developmental tool that can find flaws that prevent the achievement of these goals.
 

Design of Experiment: Math, Performance and Measurements

Design of Experiments is a method that can simultaneously change input variables as well as extract their individual contributions to an output variable. While this is a mathematical tool, the keys to success lie within the non-math activities.
 

The first step is to determine what needs to be learned.
 

This tends to be a balance between:
  • performance objectives and sometimes includes business needs (cost, for example).
  • measurements of the results that will indicate progress toward those needs. This also must be determined.
