Statistical Concepts in QC

What to Inspect?
Product or Service Ball bearing Automobile
Bank customer service
Critical Characteristic
Internal/external diameter Fuel efficiency, polluting emissions, reliability of brakes Waiting time & service time per visit, accuracy of bank statements Service quality & time, food quality, atmosphere
Restaurant Service
When to Inspect?
Inspect after operations that are likely to produce faulty items Inspect before costly operation Inspect before operations that cover up defects Inspect before assembly operations that cannot be undone On automatic machines, inspect first and last pieces of production and in between the process Inspect finished products
Acceptance Sampling
Acceptance Sampling is a quality control screening procedure for lots of purchased or internally processed items. Based on the evidence about quality contained in the sample(s) taken, acceptance sampling leads to acceptance or rejection of the submitted lots.
Acceptance Sampling
Decision to accept or reject the lot is based on the quality evidence in the samples. A good lot may be rejected (Type 1 error) penalises the producer for unwarranted inspection and replacements. A poor quality lot may be accepted (Type II error) forces on the consumer costs of passing defective units to subsequent stages (cost of rework, rejects, increased repair)

Process Control
A process is under control when it is both accurate and precise.
The presence of significant bias (lack of accuracy and/or excess variability (lack of precision)) suggests that the process is not meeting the desired process specifications and requires inspection for removing any causes of such deviation that result in poor quality output.
Process Control
Process Control is a procedure designed to identify any significant departure from the natural range of variation of some critical product characteristic. The presence of nonrandom variations is attributed to assignable causes and generally prompts management to take corrective action to bring the process under control.
Mean or X Chart
An X Chart, or mean chart, is a control chart that monitors the accuracy of a process by observing whether the means from periodic sample measurements fall within predetermined limits Centre line- Avg Value Upper Control Line = Mean + 3(StdDev) Lower Control Line = Mean - 3(StdDev)
