During his work in the electronic communication laboratory, Dr. Taguchi also widely served as a consultant for Japanese enterprises, so in the early 1950s, Japanese enterprises began to apply Taguchi method on a large scale, including Toyota and its affiliated companies. Taguchi published his first book on orthogonal tables in 195 1 year.
1954- 1955, Dr. Taguchi is a visiting professor at the Indian Institute of Statistics. During this visit, he met with famous statisticians R.A. Fisher and Walter A. Shevat.
1957- 1958, Dr. Taguchi published a book "Experimental Design" (including two volumes) for general engineers. From 65438 to 0962, Taguchi visited the United States for the first time, served as a visiting professor at Princeton and went to AT & amp； Visit to Bell Laboratories. In the same year, Taguchi received a doctorate from Kyushu University in Japan.
From 1964, Dr. Taguchi became a professor at Aoyama University in Tokyo, Japan, and this position remained until 1982. In 1966, Taguchi and some co-authors published Management by Total Results, which was translated into Chinese by Mr. Wu. At present, the application of Taguchi method has spread to Taiwan Province Province and India, but it is still quite strange to western countries. So far, the application of Taguchi method still stays in the production process, and it was not until 1970 that Taguchi method began to be used in product design.
In the early 1970s, Dr. Taguchi put forward the concept of mass loss function and revised his book Experimental Design. Until the end of 1960s, Dr. Taguchi became a minor celebrity in Japan, and successively won the Deming Literature Quality Award of 195 1 and 1953 and the Deming Personal Award of 1960. At the age of 36, Dr. Taguchi won such a lofty quality award, which is rare in Japanese traditional culture, and the quality method of its development has been valued and affirmed more and more obviously.
1980, Taguchi, as the president of Japan Quality Institute, accepted the invitation of Mr. Wu to give a speech in his American company. During this visit to the United States, Taguchi visited AT & amp； T. bell laboratory, and was received by Mr. Madhav Phadke. Although there are some problems in language communication, the successful experimental results enable Taguchi method to be established in Bell Laboratories.
Since Taguchi 1980 visited the United States, more and more American factories have implemented Taguchi method. Although many American statisticians hold negative opinions on Taguchi's method, most of the criticisms come from the lack of rigorous theoretical background as support. However, because this method has many successful cases in the industry, many large enterprises (including Xerox, Ford, ITT, etc. ) began to concentrate on using Taguchi method in product improvement and process improvement.
From 65438 to 0982, Taguchi served as a consultant of Japan Standards Association. From 65438 to 0983, Taguchi served as executive director of American Suppliers Association. Taguchi won the Deming Quality Literature Award again on 1984.
