DOE++ guides you through the designs and analyses necessary for
all phases of the DOE strategy, from screening for significant
factors, through in-depth analysis of the targeted factors and
factorial interactions, to selecting input levels for optimal
performance. The powerful and flexible interface allows you to
create multiple designs in a single project, keeping all related
analyses together.
Supported Design Types
DOE++ facilitates the design types employed in traditional DOE
and also expands upon the traditional methods to support
"Reliability DOE," which provides the proper treatment for
interval and right censored data. Supported design types
include:
One Factor Designs
Factorial Designs
- Two Level Full Factorial
- Two Level Fractional Factorial
- Plackett-Burman
- General Full Factorial
- Taguchi Orthogonal Array
Taguchi Robust Designs |
Response Surface Method Designs
- Central Composite
- Box-Behnken
Reliability DOE
-- Exclusively in DOE++!
- One Factor Reliability Designs
- Two Level Full Factorial Reliability Designs
- Two Level Fractional Factorial Reliability Designs
- Plackett-Burman Reliability Designs |
In addition, the software’s Multiple Linear Regression Tool
allows you to enter your own free-form factor and response data
and perform similar analyses.
Detailed Analysis of Experimental Results
DOE++ provides a flexible array of tools for detailed analysis
of experimental results, including:
- Analysis of variance (ANOVA) information - an overview of the
effects of factor(s) on response(s).
- Level-specific information and comparisons for one factor
designs.
- Breakdown of the importance of individual factors,
interactions and/or groups of effects to output.
- Likelihood ratio test results for reliability DOEs.
Extensive Plotting Capabilities to Present Analysis Results
Graphically
DOE++ offers a wide variety of diagnostic, interpretive and
predictive plots. In addition to a selection of individual plots
(which are available for each design type based on their
relevance and utility), the flexible Side-by-Side Plots utility
allows you to view multiple plots for a given response
simultaneously and MultiPlots facilitate comparison of separate
response analyses. Plots include:
Level Plots:
- Response vs. Level
- Level Mean
- Life Characteristic
- Box Plot
- Mean PDFs
- Comparison Chart |
Effect Plots:
- Effect Probability
- Scatter Plot
- Pareto Chart
- Main Effects
- Interactions
- Interaction Matrix
- Cube Plot |
Residual
Plots:
- Residual Probability
- Residual vs. Fitted
- Residual vs. Run
- Residual vs. Factor
- Residual Histogram
- Fitted vs. Actual |
Diagnostic Plots:
- Leverage
- Cook's Distance
- Box-Cox Transformation |
Put Your Findings Into Practice with the Powerful
Optimization Utility
You can specify the goal for each response in your analysis (as
a maximum, minimum or target value). DOE++ will search for the
combinations of factor settings that most effectively lead to
the desired output and rank them according to their
desirability. If certain responses are more important to
optimize than others, or if the target is more narrowly defined,
the software can take that into account. Solutions can be viewed
graphically or numerically.
