On - The Statistical Principles Underlying The Control Chart For Fraction Nonconforming Are Based On The Binomial Distribution

This document outlines a laboratory exercise on control charts for attributes. Students will learn to construct P charts to monitor the fraction of nonconforming items and C charts for defects. They will analyze data from three problems - constructing control charts for bearing assemblies, switches, and tape decks - to determine if the processes are in statistical control. The objectives are to understand statistical control charts for attributes and know how to design them.

1. Objective(s):
1. Understand the statistical basis of control chart attributes
2. Know how to design control chart attributes
2. Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs):
The students shall be able to:
2.1 Construct P chart for fraction non conforming
2.2 Construct c charts for defects
3. Discussion (not more than 300 words):
Control Chart attributes is a numerical measurements that classify a unit into conforming or non conforming
items
The fraction nonconforming is defined as the ratio of the number of nonconforming items in
a population to the total number of items in that populati on.The statistical principles underlying the control chart for
fraction nonconforming are based on the binomial distribution.

Almost any process will benefit from SPC, including the use of control charts. In this section, some of the
general guidelines which is helpful in implementing control charts will be presented. Specifically deals with
the following:

Determining which process characteristics to control


Determining where the charts should be implemented in the process
Choosing the proper type of control charts
Taking actions to improve processes as the result of SPC/control chart analysis
Selecting data-collection systems and computer software

Attributes Charts (p charts, c charts, and u charts)


Consider using these control charts in these situations:
1. Operators control the assignable causes, and it is necessary to reduce process fallout.
2. The process is a complex assembly operation and product quality is measured in terms of the
occurrence of nonconformities, successful or unsuccessful product function, and so forth (Examples
include computers, office automation equipment, automobiles, and the major subsystems of these
products).
3. Process control is necessary, but measurement data cannot be obtained.
4. A historical summary of process performance is necessary. Attributes control charts, such as p
charts, c charts, and u charts are very effective for summarizing information about the process for
management review.
Process Improvement is the primary objective of statistical process control. The application of control
charts will give information on two key aspects of the process: statistical control and capability. Technically
speaking, the capability of a process cannot be adequately assessed until statistical control has been
established, but a less precise definition of capability was used which is just a qualitative assessment of
whether or not the level of nonconforming units produced is low enough to warrant no immediate additional
effort to further improve the process.

5. Procedure:
Problem 1:
1.1 Give the number of nonconforming bearing and seal assemblies in sample size of 100 based
on the table below. Construct a fraction non-conforming control chart for these data. If any
points plot out of control, assume that assignable causes can be found and determine the
revised control limits.
