SPC Presentation Updated

Statistical Process Control (SPC) is a method used to monitor and control process quality, particularly in manufacturing, to reduce defects and improve efficiency. It involves understanding process variations, utilizing control charts, and measuring process capability through Cp and Cpk. Case studies in tire manufacturing demonstrate SPC's effectiveness in maintaining quality and safety by monitoring key metrics like tire thickness and diameter.

Statistical Process Control (SPC)

• Enhanced with Examples, Formulas, and


Manufacturing Case Study
Introduction to SPC
• • SPC helps monitor and control process
quality.
• • It reduces defects and improves efficiency.
• • Commonly used in manufacturing industries.
Types of Process Variations
• • Common Cause: Inherent in the process,
stable over time.
• • Special Cause: Due to external influences,
needs corrective action.
Control Charts
• • Used to monitor process stability over time.
• • Components: Centerline (CL), Upper Control
Limit (UCL), Lower Control Limit (LCL).
• • Types: X-bar, R-chart, P-chart, C-chart.
Control Limits Formula (X̄ Chart)
UCL = X̄ + A2 * R̄
• LCL = X̄ - A2 * R̄
Process Capability (Cp, Cpk)
• • Measures how well a process meets
specifications.
• • Cp: Process potential capability.
• • Cpk: Adjusted for process mean shift.
Process Capability Formula
Cp = (USL - LSL) / (6σ)
• Cpk = min [(USL - X̄ ) / (3σ), (X̄ - LSL) / (3σ)]
SPC in Tire Manufacturing
• • SPC is used to monitor tire thickness, weight,
and durability.
• • Control charts help detect variations in
rubber composition.
• • Reduces defect rates and improves safety.
Case Study: Control Chart for Tire
Thickness
• • A manufacturer measures tire tread
thickness over time.
• • Data is plotted on an X̄ -R control chart.
• • SPC helps identify when thickness deviates
from specifications.
Case Study: Process Capability in
Tire Manufacturing
• • A manufacturer checks if tire diameters
meet specifications.
• • Process capability analysis (Cp, Cpk) is used.
• • If Cpk < 1, adjustments are needed to reduce
defects.
Summary
• • SPC ensures consistent process quality.
• • Control charts help detect process shifts.
• • Process capability (Cp, Cpk) assesses
whether a process meets specifications.
• • Case studies show SPC’s effectiveness in tire
manufacturing.
