Lean Six Sigma (LSS) provides effective and sustainable solutions to meet world standards with the tools and techniques it uses. In this study, which focuses on process improvement, it is aimed to optimize the costly flexible polyurethane foam production process conditions and find out which factors are effective on the hardness of flexible polyurethane foam produced according to slabstock method by reducing variability on this process. At the end of the study, it was understood that the significant factors in the foam process were TDI index and polyol. This study improves the process approximately 15 Newton. This means better use of resources, quality and happy customers.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTaguchi Experimental DesignProcess OptimizationFlexible Polyurethane Foam Manufacturing ProcessMeasurement Systems AnalysisOptimization of flexible polyurethane foam hardness by reducing process varianceArticle38418511867WOS:000603605300016N/A
