You can add up to ten replicates of your design. When you replicate a design, you duplicate the complete set of runs from the initial design. The runs that would be added to a two factor full factorial design are as follows:

Initial design

One replicate added
(total of two replicates)

Two replicates added
(total of three replicates)

True replication provides an estimate of the error or noise in your process and may allow for more precise estimates of effects.
