What is SQC ?Statistical quality control (SQC) is
theterm used to describe the set ofstatistical tools used by
qualityprofessionals.2
3.
History SQC was pioneered by Walter A. Shewhart
atBell Laboratories in the early 1920s. Shewhart developed the control
chart in 1924 andthe concept of a state of statistical control.
Shewhart consulted with Colonel Leslie E. Simon inthe application of
control charts to munitionsmanufacture at the Armys Picatinney Arsenal
in1934.3
4.
History W. Edwards Deming invited Shewhart to speak
at theGraduate School of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, andserved
as the editor of Shewharts book Statistical Methodfrom the Viewpoint of
Quality Control (1939) whichwas the result of that lecture. Deming was
an important architect of the qualitycontrol short courses that trained
American industry inthe new techniques during WWII.4
5.
Deming traveled to Japan during the Allied
Occupation and metwith the Union of Japanese Scientists and
Engineers(JUSE)in aneffort to introduce SQC methods to Japanese
industry5

Descriptive Statistics Descriptive statistics are
used todescribe quality characteristicsand relationships.7
8.
Descriptive Statistics The Mean- measure of central
tendency The Range- difference between largest/smallestobservations in
a set of data Standard Deviation measures the amount ofdata dispersion
around mean8
9.
The Mean To compute the mean we simply sum all the
observations anddivide by the total no. of observations.9
10.
The Range Range, which is the difference betweenthe largest and smallest observations.10
11.
Standard Deviation Standard deviation is a measure
of dispersion of acurve. It measures the extent to which these values
arescattered around the central mean.11
12.
• Extend the use of descriptive statistics to
monitorthe quality of the product and process• Statistical process
control help to determine theamount of variation• To make sure the
process is in a state of controlStatistical processcontrol1212
13.
Variation in Quality No two items are exactly
alike. Some sort of variations in the two items is bound to be there.
Infact it is an integral part of any manufacturing process. This
difference in characteristics known as variation. This variation may be
due to substandard quality of rawmaterial, carelessness on the part of
operator, fault inmachinery system etc..13
15.
Variation due to chancecauses/common causes
Variation occurred due to chance. This variation is NOT due to defect
in machine, Rawmaterial or any other factors. Behave in “random
manner”. Negligible but Inevitable The process is said to be under the
state of statisticalcontrol.1515
16.
Variation due to assignablecausesNon – random causes
like:Difference in quality of raw materialDifference in
machinesDifference in operatorsDifference of time1616
18.
Specification and control limits No item in the
world can be a true copy of another item. It is not expressed in
absolute values but in terms of a range. For Eg:The diameter of a pen
is expected by itsmanufacturer not as 7mm but as 7mm ± 0.05.Thus, the
diameter of a pen produced by themanufacturer can vary from 6.95 mm to
7.05 mm.18

SPC Methods-Control Charts Control Charts show
sample data plotted on agraph with CL, UCL, and LCL Control chart for
variables are used tomonitor characteristics that can be measured,
e.g.length, weight, diameter, time Control charts for attributes are
used tomonitor characteristics that have discrete valuesand can be
counted, e.g. % defective, number offlaws in a shirt, number of broken
eggs in a box21
22.
Control Charts for Variablesx-bar chartsIt is used
to monitor the changes in the mean of aprocess (central
tendencies).R-bar chartsIt is used to monitor the dispersion or
variability of theprocess22
23.
Constructing a X-bar chart( sigma is not given) A
factory produces 50 cylinders per hour. Samples of 10cylinders are taken
at random from the production atevery hour and the diameters of
cylinders are measured.Draw X-bar and R charts and decide whether
theprocess is under control or not.(For n=4 A2= 0.73 D3= 0, D4=2.28)23
32.
Constructing a X-bar Chart(Sigma is given) A
quality control inspector at the Coca-Cola soft drinkcompany has taken
twenty-five samples with four observationseach of the volume of bottles
filled. The data and thecomputed means are shown in the table. If the
standarddeviation of the bottling operation is 0.14 ounces, use
thisinformation to develop control limits of three standarddeviations
for the bottling operation.32
37.
Control Charts for Attributes Attributes are
discrete events; yes/no, pass/failUse P-Charts for quality
characteristics that arediscrete and involve yes/no or good/bad
decisions Number of leaking caulking tubes in a box of 48 Number of
broken eggs in a cartonUse C-Charts for discrete defects when there
canbe more than one defect per unit Number of flaws or stains in a
carpet sample cut from aproduction run Number of complaints per
customer at a hotel37
38.
P-Chart Example A Production manager of a BKT tire
company hasinspected the number of defective tires in five randomsamples
with 20 tires in each sample. The table belowshows the number of
defective tires in each sample of 20tires. Calculate the control
limits.38
42.
C - Chart Example The number of weekly customer
complaints aremonitored in a large hotel using a c-chart. Developthree
sigma control limits using the data table below.42
46.
Process Capability Evaluating the ability of a
production process to meet orexceed preset specifications. This is
called processcapability. Product specifications, often called
tolerances, arepreset ranges of acceptable quality characteristics,
suchas product dimensions.46
47.
Two parts of process capability 1) Measure the
variability of the output of a process, and 2) Compare that variability
with a proposed specification orproduct tolerance.47
48.
Measuring Process Capability To produce an
acceptable product, theprocess must be capable and in controlbefore
production begins.486LSLUSLCp
49.
Example Let’s say that the specification forthe
acceptable volume of liquid ispreset at 16 ounces ±.2 ounces,which is
15.8 and 16.2 ounces.49
50.
Figure (a) The process produces 99.74 percent
(three sigma) of theproduct with volumes between 15.8 and 16.2
ounces.501pC
51.
Figure (b) The process produces 99.74 percent
(three sigma)of the product with volumes between 15.7 and
16.3ounces.511pC
52.
Figure (c) the production process produces 99.74
percent (threesigma) of the product with volumes between 15.9 and16.1
ounces.521pC
55.
Process capability ratio(off centering process)
There is a possibility that the process mean may shift over aperiod of
time, in either direction, i.e., towards the USL or theLSL. This may
result in more defective items then the expected.This shift of the
process mean is called the off-centering of theprocess.553,3minLSLUSLC
