Allocation

Allocation identifies the amount of parameter variation that will improve a response's variation to a desired level. (This is often referred to as statistical tolerancing or requirements flowdown.) With allocation you can specify a desired value for response standard deviation or response PNC and the algorithm will compute a vector of parameter standard deviations that will meet your objective. Driver values are used to help guide the parameter standard deviations in sensible directions.

Features:

  • Identify tolerances that are too tight or too loose
  • Quantify risk of not meeting requirements
  • Easy-to-use and learn interface
  • Unlimited number of factors*
  • Truly statistical tolerancing
  • Define parameter variability budgets and tolerances that strike the right balance between quality & cost
  • Advanced calculations for numerical derivatives
  • 2nd-order analysis
  • User-selectable allocation drivers
  • Nonlinearity test and warning

*Constrained only by worksheet size/memory limits in MS Excel™
