How engineers master the chaos of manufacturing process variation
In short: This lecture from MIT OpenCourseWare explores the fundamental methods used to minimize fluctuations in manufacturing, examining the critical trade-offs between cost and performance.
The video examines the nature of manufacturing process variation and introduces a general model to identify the limitations a specific process imposes on control methods. The text outlines a three-tier framework of approaches aimed at reducing fluctuations: Process Optimization, Statistical Process Control, and in-process Feedback Control.
The course evaluates these methods based on their cost-performance trade-offs, measuring performance through changes in process capability.
