This paper presents the robust design of gripper part for a high-speed LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) transfer system. In this paper, the $1^{st}$ DOE(Design of Experiment) is conducted to find out main-effect factors for the design of gripper part. Thirty-six analysis are performed using $ANSYS^{(R)}$ and their results are statistically analyzed using $MINITAB^{(R)}$, which shows that the factors, i.e., First-width, Second-width, Rec-width, and thickness of gripper part, are more important than other factors. The main effect plots shows that the maximum deflection and mass of gripper part are minimized by increasing First-width, Second-width, Rec-width and thickness. The $2^{nd}$ DOE is conducted to obtain RSM(Response Surface Method) equation. The CCD(Central Composite Design) technique with four factors is used. Optimum design is conducted using the RSM equation. Genetic algorithm is used for optimal design. Six sigma robust design is conducted to find out a guideline for control range of design parameter. To obtain six sigma level quality, the standard deviations of design parameters are shown to be controlled within 5% of average design value.
