EXAMPLE
Automobile Airbag Inflation - A company that manufactures automobile
airbags has a problem with an unacceptably high rate of failure in the
inflation of the bag. During testing, 10 percent of the bags do not fully
inflate. An engineer is assigned the job of solving the problem. At first the
engineer defines the problem as a failure in the materials and
construction of the inflation device. The engineer begins to solve this
problem by producing a more robust inflation device. After considerable
effort, the engineer discovers that improving the inflation device does not
change the failure rate in the bags. Eventually, this engineer re-examines
the initial definition of the problem. The company investigates the airbag
inflation problem further and discovers that a high degree of variability in
the tightness of folds is responsible for the failure of some bags to inflate.
At the time the bags were folded and packed by people on an assembly
line. With a more complete understanding of the need, the engineer
redefined the problem as one of increasing the consistency in tightness of
the folds in the bags. The final solution to this problem is a machine that
automatically folds the bags.
