Speedometer cable shrinkage
Description
Speedometer cables can be noisy because of shrinkage in the plastic casing material. An experiment was conducted to find out what caused shrinkage by screening a large number of factors. The engineers started with 15 different factors.
Format
The dataset contains the following variables: (variables a-o are 2 level factors, coded "+" and "-" where "+" indicates a higher value where appropriate)
- a
liner outer diameter
- b
liner die
- c
liner material
- d
liner line speed
- e
wire braid type
- f
braiding tension
- g
wire diameter
- h
liner tension
- i
liner temperature
- j
coating material
- k
coating die type
- l
melt temperature
- m
screen pack
- n
cooling method
- o
line speed
- y
percentage shrinkage per specimen
