- The Healthy Chocolate Company makes a variety of chocolate candles, including a 12-ounce chocolate bar (340 grams) and a box of six 1-ounce chocolate bars (170 grams). a.Specifications for the 12-ounce bar are 322 grams to 358 grams. What is the largest standard deviation (In grams) that the machine that fills the bar molds can have and still be considered capable if the average fill is 340 grams? (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places and final answer to 3 decimal places.) Standard deviation b.The machine that filles the bar molds for the 6-ounce bars has a standard deviation of .84 grams. The filling machine is set to deliver an average of 1.04 ounces per bar. Specifications for the six-bar box are 150 to 190 grams per box. Is the process capable? Hint: The variance for the box is equal to six times the bar variance. Convert all calculations Into grams.

Specifications are atLSL = 196 and USL = 206.a) Estimate the process capability with an appropriate process capability ratio.b) What is the potential capability of this process?c) Items that are produced below the lower specification limit must bescrapped, while items that are above the upper specification limit can bereworked. What proportion of the process output is scrap and whatproportion is rework?d) Because scrap is more expensive than rework, the process has been centered closer to the upper specification limit. If scrap is twice as expensive as rework, is the process mean at the best possible location? What value of the process target would you recommend?arrow_forward10arrow_forward
- Why is calibration important to a good quality control system?arrow_forwardThe output of a certain integrated-circuit productionline is checked daily by inspecting a sample of 100 units.Over a long period of time, the process has maintaineda yield of 80 percent, that is, a proportion defective of 20 percent, and the variation of the proportion defec-tive from day to day is measured by a standard devi-ation of 0.04. If on a certain day the sample contains 38 defectives, find the mean of the posterior distribu-tion of as an estimate of that day’s proportion defec-tive. Assume that the prior distribution of Θ is a beta distribution.arrow_forwardPlease do not give solution in image format thankuarrow_forward
- The measurement of 85 automotive cables gave an arithmetic mean of the inner diameters of 3.51 mm and a standard deviation of 0.02 mm.The value required by the manufacturer is 3.5 upper/lower tolerance +0.04/ -0.12It is requested : a. Calculate the capability coefficients Cp, Cpk and state whether or not the machine is capable of producing compliant parts, i.e. whether or not the data dispersion is well centred. If applicable, calculate the adjustment coefficient Cr.b. If scrap is obtained, state whether it is recoverable or non-recoverable and calculate the percentage of scrap.c. Plot the limits of the tolerance field and the distribution of the measured data (using mean and standard deviation).arrow_forwardThis lesson's name is QUALİTY KONTROL AND ASSURANCE .

Defects can include errors in times, airlines, flight numbers, prices, car rental information, lodging, charge card numbers, and reservation numbers, as well as typographical errors. As the possible number of errors is nearly infinite, the agency measures the number of errors that do occur. The current process results in an average of five errors per itinerary. a. What are the two-sigma control limits for these defects? The UCLc equals _______________ and the LCLc equals ____________________ (Enter your responses rounded to three decimal places. If your answer for LCLc is negative, enter this value as 0.) b. A client scheduled a trip to Dallas. Her itinerary contained five errors. Interpret this information. A. The number of defects is within the control limits, so it is assumed that the process is not in control. B. The number of defects is within the…arrow_forward

The pipe is enclosed in a concrete casing that is of square cross section and 1.45m on a side. The axis of the pipe is centered in the casing, and the outer surfaces of the casing are maintained at 340 K . What is the rate of heat loss per unit length of pipe?arrow_forwardSuppose that a processoutput is normally distributed with a mean of 30.0 and a variance of 1.44.
