Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)

Our SPC software, SPC for Excel, performs ANOVA for one to five factors. ANOVA allows you to determine if there are significant differences between treatments.The software contains crossed, nested or mixed designs – as well as fixed or random factors.  The runs can be randomized.

The output includes the ANOVA table for the factor and for the model.  Also included is the variability chart – a chart that shows each run at each level of the factors.  This chart is easily revised to switch factor levels or can be colored-coded by factor.  A complete list of ANOVA features is given below.
