This paper considers a six sigma project for reducing the defects rate of the welding process in manufacturing firms. The project follows a disciplined process of five macro phases. define, measure, analyze, improve and control(DMAIC). The need of customers is used to identify critical to quality(CTQ) of project. And a process map is used to identify process input factors of CTQ. Four key process input factors are selected by using an input factor evaluation of teams; an interval of welding, an abrasion, an electric current and a moving freely. DOE is utilized for finding the optimal process conditions of the three key process input factors. Another one key input factor improved to welding machine. The six sigma level of defects rate becomes a 2.01 from a 1.61 at the beginning of the project.
