Problem 2: Taguchi Loss Function (5 points) An automobile weather strip has a specified width of 204 mm. Three suppliers produce parts with the following process characteristics: Supplier Mean Width (mm) Variance (mm2) A 20.01.778 B 18.00.444 C 17.20.160(a) Field returns indicate the following proportions of parts out of specification (i.e., width outside the range [16 mm,24 mm]) for each supplier based on shipments of 250,000 parts: Supplier A: 0.27%, Supplier B: 0.135%, Supplier C: 0.135%. Each returned part costs $60 to replace. Compare the three suppliers based on the cost of defective (out of specification) units. (b) The quadratic quality loss function is defined such that a 4 mm deviation from the target results in a loss of $60 per unit. Compare the three suppliers based on the quadratic quality loss function. Problem 2: Taguchi Loss Function (5 points)An automobile weather strip has a specified width of \(20\pm 4\mathrm{~mm}\).
