In this paper, we analyze the calendaring operation in the process of paper manufacturing. Controllable parameters involved in the calendaring operation are the calendar material, temperature and pressure. Main objective of this paper is to find the robust design of these parameters which would provide consistent quality of paper in terms of the thickness, brightness, and roughness. We first use a split-plot design in the context of a central composit design for a preliminary analysis to find the proper calendar material. Next, response surfaces for the mean and variance of each quality attribute are fitted as functions of calender temperature and pressure. Bootstrap resampling approach is used to find the robust parameter design.
