Question

Six Sigma - Two way ANOVA

An engineer suspects that the cutting speed and the feed rate influence the surface finish of a metal part. For the study the engineer collected 4 cutting speeds and 3 feed rates and conducted a 2 factor experiment to obtain the data in Table 4 with 3 replications.

Conduct ANOVA at = 0.05 to test for the significance of all possible effects.

Table 4 Feed Rate Cutting Speed 0.1 0.2 0.3 100 54, 60, 65 79, 68, 80 99, 88, 94 200 98, 89, 94 98, 106, 90 100, 98, 108 300 109, 98, 89 100, 108, 94 99, 82, 102 400 112, 100, 82 94, 104, 108 98, 116, 106

Explanation / Answer

applying two way ANOVA on above:

as p value is lower then 0.05 in cutting speed , feed and interaction, it has siginificance of  of all possible effects.
