Concept of a unified approach to ensuring the robustness of processes of different categories
The article considers the problem of scientific and methodological support of testing production processes, including control processes, in the framework of product launching into manufacture. The consequences of incorrect validation of production processes for compliance with the established acceptance criteria are determined. The rationality of the robustness of production processes is justified, which best characterizes their acceptability. The analysis is carried out for existing sources of robustness losses, as well as quantitative indicators that characterize the robustness of processes, and their classification is proposed. The concept of a strategy for ensuring the robustness of processes at the stage of product launching into manufacture is formulated. An approach is proposed that involves a significant modification of G. Taguchi’s methods for designing robust processes at the stage of qualification tests.
