• An Effective Design of Experiment Strategy to Optimize SMT Processes

  by Dr. Ronald C. Lasky, Daryl Santos PhD

  It is now widely accepted that using designed experiments is the most effective way to optimize surface mount technology (SMT) processes. This situation begs the question “what is an effective strategy in implementing this powerful tool?” This paper will present such a strategy that incorporates Taguchi’s approach for screening, full factorial analysis for optimization and central composite design for precise modeling. We will present these techniques using MINITABTM Release 13 statistical software and printed circuit board industry applications.
