Example: Xbar chart Control Limits by σxbar
A quality control manager took five samples
(S1, S2, S3, S4, S5), each with four observations, of the
diameter of shafts manufactured on a lathe machine. The
manager computed the mean of each sample and then computed
the grand mean. All values are in cm. Use this information to
obtain 3-sigma (i.e., z=3 ) control limits for means of future
times. It is known from previous experience that the standard
deviation σx of the process is 0.02 cm.

Control Limits for p–Chart
Control chart for attributes, used to monitor the proportion of defectivesin a process.
Upper control limit, UCLp = p + z σ p
Lower control limit, LCLp = p - z σ p
where from Binomial distribution,
p(1 − p)
σp =
n
and p is the nominal fraction of defectivesin the process.
If p is unknown,it can be estimated as p from history. The estimate, p, replaces p.
Sometimes LCL is negative due to approximate formula.Use LCL = 0.

Summary of SPC
● Statistical process control provides simple, yet
powerful, for managing process while avoiding
process tampering
● A process 'in control' (i.e.; exhibiting no special
cause variation) is ripe for the next stage--
breakthrough process improvement
● A process still burdened with special cause
variation is still in the problem-solving stage

Process Control and Capability:
Review
● Every process displays some variability—normal or
abnormal
● Control charts can identify abnormal variability
● Control charts may give false (or missed) alarms by
mistaking normal (abnormal) for abnormal (normal)
variability
● On-line control leads to early detection and correction
● A process “in control” indicates only its internal stability
● Improving process capability involves changing the
mean and/or reducing normal variability requiring a long
term investment
OPRE 6364 99
Design for Capable Processing
• Simplify
– Fewer parts, steps
– Modular design
• Standardize
– Less variety
– Standard, proven parts, and procedures
