The present paper describes a basic research of modularization technology and robust design based on Taguchi Method. The modularization technology used in this paper is based on DSM (Design Structure Matrix). DSM represents the relationship between the product components. A designer can modularize a product according to the relationship linked by DSM. Taguchi Method enhances the robustness of a target system. Taguchi method calculates the S/N ratio of a system with the typical values of the target design parts. The robust design can be achieved by referencing the S/N ratio. In this paper, modularization technology and Taguchi method are applied to the parallel mechanism and realize the improvement of its function.
