Control Chart

The document discusses control charts, a statistical quality control technique developed by W.A. Shewart, used for monitoring manufacturing processes and ensuring product quality. It outlines the use of control charts, particularly the C-bar and p-chart, to track defects and nonconforming units in production. The document emphasizes the importance of these charts in maintaining quality standards and identifying when processes may be out of control.

Control chart

• Statistical quality control techniques were first developed by W.A.


Shewart, who was working for the Bell Telephone Co. in the USA at
the time. Since World War II, these techniques have been
increasingly and advantageously used by a large number of
manufacturing concerns.
Methods of Quality Control
Quality control methods are applicable at two distinct phases of
the operation of a plant.
(a) Control of the manufacturing process through the statistical
'control chart'.
(b) Inspection of articles by the 'acceptance sampling technique'.
Control Charts
• Statistical Charts used for controlling manufacturing
processes is called Control chart.
• Companies always strive to maintain the quality of the products
and services within the parameters specified in the chart.
• Tool to enable the managers whether the production processes
are in proper order.
• Control chart is indispensable instrument for specification,
production and inspection.
C̅ (C-bar): This represents the mean (average) number of
defects per sample.
C (number of defects): This refers to the actual count of
defects in a specific sample.
The C-bar serves as the centerline of the control chart, and
the LCL and UCL define the acceptable range of variability
for defects in the process.
If the observed number of defects (C) in a sample falls
outside these limits, it indicates that the process may be out
of control and requires investigation.
Solution:
Total no of defects = 8+9+……..….+14 = 116
Total no of samples = 15
P chart
• the p-chart is a type of control chart used to monitor the
proportion of nonconforming units in a sample, where the sample
proportion nonconforming is defined as the ratio of the number of
nonconforming units to the sample size.
• Proportion= defects / unit of samples taken
TO DRAW A CONTROL CHART:

UCL
LCL
SAMPLE SIZE
TOTAL SAMPLE SIZE
AVERAGE DEFECTS
PROPORTIONS
Control chart (p-chart)

Analyze if the process is within


control by observing the
plotted p-chart.
• p: the proportion of defective items.
• q: the proportion of non-defective items.

Equation: p +q=1
• Total no of defective items:11+9+……….+9=156
• Total no of sampled items:200+200+…….+200= 3000

=156/3000 = 0.052

=1-0.052 = 0.948
