Indium Corporation’s Dr. Ron Lasky to Present on Design of Experiments in Upcoming Webinar

 

Indium Corporation’s Dr. Ron Lasky will share his technical insight on the importance of Design of Experiments to optimize the electronics assembly process as part of the company’s popular InSIDER Series of webinars. The presentation, Design of Experiments (DOE) for SMT 101, will take place on Tuesday, May 3, at 10:30 a.m. San Francisco/1:30 p.m. New York/6:30 p.m. London/7:30 p.m. Germany.

 

DOE is an extremely important tool in electronics assembly to optimize the assembly process. In this webinar, Dr. Lasky will present a practical approach to understanding and performing DOE. The session will start with a layman’s perspective of analysis of variance (ANOVA), the statistical technique that is employed in DOE. A simple DOE will then be performed by hand to demonstrate the math involved. The webinar will conclude with the analysis of a DOE to optimize stencil printing. The DOE will be performed with Minitab®, and a thorough discussion of the results will be given. The data will be available for attendees to perform the Minitab® analysis on their own after the webinar. Click here to register.
