- Describe how to construct process control charts and use them to determine whether a process is out of statistical control.arrow_forwardA Quality Analyst wants to construct a control chart for determining whether three machines, all producing the same product, are under control with regard to a particular quality variable. Accordingly, he sampled four units of output from each machine, with the following results: Machine Measurements #1 17 15 15 17 #2 16 25 18 25 # 3 23 24 23 22 What is the estimate of the process mean for whenever it is under control?

- Refer to Table S6.1-Factors for Computing Control Chart Limits (3 sigma) for this problem. Thirty-five samples of size 7 each were taken from a fertilizer-bag-filling machine at Panos Kouvelis Lifelong Lawn Ltd. The results were: Overall mean = 54.75 lb.; Average range R = 1.54 lb. a) For the given sample size, the control limits for 3-sigma x chart are: Upper Control Limit (UCL) = lb.

The measurements are made on the inside diameter of the bearing, with only the last three decimals recorded (i.e., 31.6 should be 0.50316). Please show all your work for full credit. (a) Set up x and R charts on this process. Does the process seem to be in statistical control? If necessary, revise the trial control limits. (b) Assume that diameter is normally distributed.
