Two-way Comparative Pareto Plot

The two-way layout of Pareto plots shows each level of both X variables. The bars in the upper left cell are arranged in descending order and the bars in the other cells match that order. In each cell of the two-way comparative plot, the bars representing the two most frequently occurring problems are colored black. Contamination and metallization are the two vital categories in all cells. After furnace cleaning, contamination is less of a problem.
