Data Type Prameters Plotted Typical Use Advantages Variables

This document summarizes various types of statistical process control charts, including their parameters plotted, typical uses, and advantages/disadvantages. It includes details on X-bar and R charts for variables data and P, NP, U, and C charts for attributes data. The charts can be used to monitor processes, detect shifts or variations, and are suited to different data types and situations depending on their ease of use, calculation complexity, sensitivity to changes, and ability to relate to process tolerances. Chart selection involves considerations of subgroup size, frequency, and number of subgroups.
