Control Charts Quality Control

Quality Control Case


Company producing dependable and high performance products. Implemented TQM Product Quality improved with the use of control charts Products did not conform to product specifications and had variation in product performance. Self Charting at each production centre, work team meet and detect undesirable trends before and after every shift. Defect rates dip to 0.01%

Statistical Concepts in QC
Random Sampling Attributes (Defective or Non Defective) Variables are characteristics which can be measured Sample Size 100% inspection for First Class quality Goods

Central Limit Theorem


Sampling Distributions can be assumed to be normal even if the population distributions are not normal Sample mean = Population mean Standard Error of Sample is less than Standard error of population by 1/(n), where n is the sample size

Accuracy versus Precision in Process Control

Inaccurate due to bias

Precise small variability Accurate

Imprecise large variability

What to Inspect?

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.

Process Control Charts for variables


Whenever the evaluation of process performance requires considerable detail, we single out critical output characteristics that can be measured on a continous scale (length, weight, volume, processing time). Helps to evaluate process accuracy and precision in terms of average level and accuracy Mean X Chart and Range R Chart

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)

Process Control Charts for Attributes


For many operations, all we need to know is whether the quality of an item or some aspect of the process is satisfactory or not. This may not require any detailed measurements, and process control can be assessed by describing the process or its output in terms of some critical attributes

P Chart for Proportion of Defectives


A P Chart, or Proportion-defective chart, is a control chart used to monitor a process by observing the proportion with which some selected attribute appears in samples taken periodically Centre line - avg proportion of defectives Upper Control Limit = Mean +3(StdDev) Lower Control Limit = Mean - 3(StdDev) Std Dev = SQRT(p(1-p)/n), LCL = 0 if LCL < 0
