Embodiment Construction

[0018] Using the Six-Sigma technique, a series of transfer functions for a circuit breaker mechanism under different operating modes are developed. These series of equations are then solved simultaneously to provide an optimal circuit breaker mechanism design.

[0019] The circuit breaker mechanism can operate in several different ways. For example, on / off, off / on, trip, and reset are just a few of the modes of operation that a circuit breaker mechanism pre-requires. When designing the mechanism, engineers had to balance the requirements of many different users to obtain the desired performance.

[0020] Many times these requirements are contradictory, for example, if the user requires a high withstand rating, but still expects low handle force, one way to increase the withstand force in a circuit breaker mechanism is to increase the contact pressure, however, this requires A stronger mechanism spring, which in turn increases the handle force of the breaker. Therefore, in o...

Abstract

A system that implements a design process having a plurality of sub-processes each having a plurality of sub-steps. The system includes an independent application for implementing the design process. A series of independent sub-process applications each implements one sub-process of the design process. A communications path provides for communications between the design process and each of the sub-process applications. The communications path also provides for communications between each of said plurality of sub-processes. An application library containing a plurality of executable applications is accessible by the design process and sub-processes to access and execute the plurality of application tools.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system for implementing a design for six sigma (DFSS) process. For any application (business, manufacturing, services, etc.), the sigma value is used to indicate variability. A Sigma quality rating indicates how well a process is performing. The higher the sigma value, the better the output value. Sigma measures the ability of a process to function without failure, where failure is synonymous with user dissatisfaction. With Six Sigma, the usual measure is failures per unit, where a unit can be virtually anything—a component, a standard part of a jet engine, a supervisory program, and so on. The sigma value indicates how often failures are likely to occur. As sigma increases, user satisfaction rises, while other measures such as cost and cycle time improve. Background technique [0002] The Six Sigma methodology has been implemented for specialized applications such as semiconductor manufacturing. However, one di...
