Sokovic et al. (2005) applied basic approach Six-Sigma methodology which includes Process feasibility study, Process planning, Process preparation, Trial production run and Process quantification. Using this basic approach a new process design was developed for compressor-housing machining process. During the process panning phase the Failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) method is widely used. Due to large number of Key process input variables (KPIV) it becomes difficult to use FMEA method. To
as Motorola, GE, etc. have demonstrated in their manufacturing operations, Six Sigma methodology has moved to other areas such as Healthcare, Service Industries, etc. This outreach to other industries has continued to make Six Sigma a popular subject in both industry and academia.
