Download or read book EZ Spc Statistical Process Control Demystified written by Ralph Celone and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-06-15 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a how-to manual for implementing a Statistical Process Control program for any type of business. It takes the unnecessarily complicated, sometimes-intimidating Statistical Process Control concept - thoroughly dissects and demystifies it while making it very easy to understand with a minimum of effort. While Statistical Process Control was originally created for manufacturing, this book contains many examples of how SPC can and should be applied in virtually any business to dramatically eliminate waste, improve quality and profits. The book also dispenses with much of the little used theoretical concepts of statistics that can bog down and increase costs of a quality improvement or Six Sigma program and presents SPC in a "meat & potatoes" approach designed to allow anyone to be able to master the basics of Statistical Process Control regardless of their level of education. This book is the product of the author's many years of experience learning about and teaching Statistical Process Control and his desire to share his knowledge in the hope that he can help others avoid some of the common mistakes usually made.

It provides you with a conceptual understanding of SPC so that appropriate decisions can be made about the benefits of incorporating SPC into the process management and quality improvement processes. Today, there is little need to make the necessary calculations by hand, so the author utilizes Minitab and NWA Quality Analyst—two of the most popular statistical analysis software packages on the market. Links are provided to the home pages of these software packages where trial versions may be downloaded for evaluation and trial use. The book also addresses the question of why SPC should be considered for use, the process of implementing SPC, how to incorporate SPC into problem identification, problem solving, and the management and improvement of processes, products, and services.
Download or read book Practical Statistical Process Control written by Colin Hardwick and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-10-22 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tools and technique used in Statistical Process Control have been used around the world to monitor and measure process variation and allow real positive changes to be made. The majority of engineers and scientists have had some exposure to this important technique but in many cases this has been badly taught and they fail to see the usefulness of it properly applied. This book has been written with the authors 30 years experience in practical Statistical Process Control and is aimed squarely at practising engineers and scientists rather than statisticians and mathematicians. Practical Statistical Process Control takes a graphical approach using a software tool called Minitab. The author concentrates on each step of using the technique with explanations along the way of each decision point. Readers will find this guide both practical and useful, with copious screenshots of the software in use and clear precise explanations. The emphasis is on understanding the technique and being able to use it in real world applications. Key points: * Provides tools and techniques for practical business and process improvement. * Introduces screenshots and explanations for each step of SPC including the importance of assessing the measurement system and constructing control charts. * A worked example, using Minitab sample data with clear explanations of the variables and analyses. This book will be extremely useful to engineers and scientists who want to solve quality, process and manufacturing problems quickly and easily.
Download or read book Statistical Process Control written by Robert James Oakland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The business, commercial and public-sector world has changed dramatically since John Oakland wrote the first edition of Statistical Process Control – a practical guide in the mid-eighties. Then people were rediscovering statistical methods of ‘quality control’ and the book responded to an often desperate need to find out about the techniques and use them on data. Pressure over time from organizations supplying directly to the consumer, typically in the automotive and high technology sectors, forced those in charge of the supplying production and service operations to think more about preventing problems than how to find and fix them. Subsequent editions retained the ‘took kit’ approach of the first but included some of the ‘philosophy’ behind the techniques and their use. The theme which runs throughout the 7th edition is still processes - that require understanding, have variation, must be properly controlled, have a capability, and need improvement - the five sections of this new edition. SPC never has been and never will be simply a ‘took kit’ and in this book the authors provide, not only the instructional guide for the tools, but communicate the management practices which have become so vital to success in organizations throughout the world. The book is supported by the authors' extensive and latest consulting work within thousands of organisations worldwide. Fully updated to include real-life case studies, new research based on client work from an array of industries, and integration with the latest computer methods and Minitab software, the book also retains its valued textbook quality through clear learning objectives and end of chapter discussion questions. It can still serve as a textbook for both student and practicing engineers, scientists, technologists, managers and for anyone wishing to understand or implement modern statistical process control techniques.

Download or read book Statistical Process Control written by G. Barrie Wetherill and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-08-02 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Statistical process control (SPC) is now recognized as having a very important role to play in modern industry. Our aim in this book has been to present SPC techniques in a simple and clear way, and also to present some of the underlying theory and properties of the techniques. This volume arises partly out of a revision of Wetherill (1977), and partly out of experience in teaching and implementing SPC at industrial sites, especially with ICI. It would have been impossible to come to our present understanding of this field without the joint efforts of industry and university. A number of features of this book are new: (1) The special emphasis on process industry problems, including one at-a-time data. (2) The discussion of between and within-group variation, and the effects of this on charting and on process capability analysis. (3) The derivation of the properties of the techniques has not been gathered together before. (4) The presentation of sampling by variables contains many new features. The techniques themselves are presented in a very simple way by using 'method summaries', and these could be a basis for training when SPC is implemented.
