X and R Chartin Class Example

This document provides an example of creating X-bar and R charts to determine if a gluing process is in statistical control. It includes sample data measuring the force applied at different points in the process. The steps shown are: 1) calculating sample means, ranges, and overall means, 2) determining the control limit formulas and values from statistical tables, 3) using the formulas to calculate the X-bar chart control limits and plot the values, and 4) calculating and plotting the R-chart control limits. The goal is to use these control charts to assess if variability in the gluing process is only due to chance or if adjustments to the process are needed.

a gluing process:
Determine if the process is in control
by calculating the appropriate upper and
lower
control limits of the X-bar and R charts.
