Book Performance Characterization of Integrated Statistical Process Control Systems

Download or read book Performance Characterization of Integrated Statistical Process Control Systems written by Karin Kandananond and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business competition requires organizations to increase their products0́9 quality and reduce cost at the same time. Statistical process control (SPC) techniques are important tools for monitoring process performance over time to detect special causes. Automatic process control (APC) systems, on the other hand, are utilized to regulate performance relative to a specified target. The literature indicates that combining APC and SPC systems result in integrated SPC (ISPC) systems offering an effective approach to process improvement. The objective of this research was twofold. The first objective was aimed at identifying the various process factors likely to affect the long-term performance of ISPC systems. The process considered was one of discrete parts manufacturing characterized by the integrated moving average model IMA (1, 1). A simulation model was developed to represent system performance in terms of the mean squared error (MSE) of the resulting output and the average run length (ARL) of the SPC chart utilized. Simulated results were analyzed to identify influential factors likely to affect the system performance. The second objective targeted the development of criteria for the economic performance of ISPC systems. Two mathematical cost models were developed utilizing Taguchi0́9s quadratic loss function and accounted for key characteristics of the process and system design factors. These two models were used to derive criteria for the economic selection of the SPC chart design parameters. It is hoped that the proposed criteria will help practitioners select appropriate charting alternatives to minimize the total cost of operation.

Book Frontiers in Statistical Quality Control 13

Download or read book Frontiers in Statistical Quality Control 13 written by Sven Knoth and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-15 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This contributed book focuses on major aspects of statistical quality control, shares insights into important new developments in the field, and adapts established statistical quality control methods for use in e.g. big data, network analysis and medical applications. The content is divided into two parts, the first of which mainly addresses statistical process control, also known as statistical process monitoring. In turn, the second part explores selected topics in statistical quality control, including measurement uncertainty analysis and data quality. The peer-reviewed contributions gathered here were originally presented at the 13th International Workshop on Intelligent Statistical Quality Control, ISQC 2019, held in Hong Kong on August 12-14, 2019. Taken together, they bridge the gap between theory and practice, making the book of interest to both practitioners and researchers in the field of statistical quality control.

Book Mastering Statistical Process Control

Download or read book Mastering Statistical Process Control written by Tim Stapenhurst and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mastering Statistical Process Control shows how to understand business or process performance more clearly and more effectively. This practical book is based on a rich and varied selection of case studies from across industry and commerce, including material from the manufacturing, extractive and service sectors. It will enable readers to understand how SPC can be used to maximum effect, and will deliver more effective monitoring, control and improvement in systems, processes and management. The common obstacle to successful use of SPC is getting bogged down with control charts, forgetting that visual representation of data is but a tool and not an end in itself. Mastering SPC demonstrates how statistical tools are applied and used in reality. This is a book that will open up the power of SPC for many: managers, quality professionals, engineers and analysts, as well as students, will welcome the clarity and explanation that it brings to understanding the use and benefit of SPC in a wide range of engineering, production and service situations. Key case studies include using SPC to: · Measure quality and human factors · Monitor process performance accurately over long periods · Develop best-practice benchmarks using control charts · Maximise profitability of fixed assets · Improve customer service and satisfaction

Book Statistical Process Control

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.

Book Managing Processes Using the Process Window Monitor  An Alternative Human Centered Statistical Process Control Tool

Download or read book Managing Processes Using the Process Window Monitor An Alternative Human Centered Statistical Process Control Tool written by Amanda Jean Burger and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main thesis of this work challenges the claims made by Kelly's (2002) that present the PWM as a superior alternative to a traditional SPC X¯and R chart. Experimental testing was performed that aimed at comparing the performance of the PWM to a traditional statistical process control X¯ and R chart in a manufacturing setting. This statistical comparison was developed to analyze the process control treatments ability to influence the stress placed on an operator in relation to process control, an operators' response to significant out-of-control conditions and the human/process control system interaction for performance and human interests.
