19. Sampling and Process Distribution Example An industrial process that makes 3-foot sections of plastic pipe produces pipe with an average inside diameter of 1 (one) inch and a standard deviation of 0.05 inch.
A). If you randomly select one piece of pipe, what is the probability that its inside diameter will exceed 1.02 inches, assuming the population is normal?
B). If you select a random sample of 25 pieces of pipe, what is the probability that the sample mean will exceed 1.02 inches?

23. Control Charts for Variables Mean charts
Used to monitor the central tendency of a process.
X bar charts
Range charts
Used to monitor the process dispersion
R charts
24. Control Charts for Variables
25. X bar charts Center line is the grand mean (X double bar)
Points are X bars

Points are R
D3 and D4 values are tabled according to n (sample size)

37. Control Chart for Attributes p-Chart - Control chart used to monitor the proportion of defectives in a process
c-Chart - Control chart used to monitor the number of defects per unit
38. Use of p-Charts When observations can be placed into two categories.
Good or bad
Pass or fail
Operate or don’t operate
When the data consists of multiple samples of several observations each
39. P- Charts
40. P-Charts Example Hometown Bank (using Z=3)
41. P-Charts Results
42. C- Charts c charts – used to count defects in a constant sample size
43. Use of c-Charts Use only when the number of occurrences per unit of measure can be counted; non-occurrences cannot be counted.
Scratches, chips, dents, or errors per item
Cracks or faults per unit of distance
Breaks or Tears per unit of area
Bacteria or pollutants per unit of volume
Calls, complaints, failures per unit of time
44. C-Charts Example A Highway intersection averages 3 accidents per month. Last month 7 accidents occurred. Has something changed at the intersection? Use z=3.

Too much dispersion
49. Run Tests Example The number of defective items per sample for 11 samples is shown below. Determine if random patterns are present in the sequence using both median and Up-down tests.
50. Specifications or tolerances
Range of acceptable values established by engineering design or customer requirements
Process variability
Natural variability in a process
Process capability
Process variability relative to specification
One of the unique properties of a normal distribution is that 99.74% of the observations will fall within 3 standard deviation (? ) from the mean (µ). Thus, we expect a process that is in control to produce the majority of the output (99.74%) between µ-3? and µ+3?, where µis the process mean. That is, the natural tolerance limits of the process are µ?3?, and thus we use 6? as a measure of process capability.

55. Process Capability Ratio & Index Example The intensive care unit lab process has an average turnaround time of 26.1 minutes and a standard deviation of 1.2 minutes. The target (nominal) value for this service is 25 minutes with an upper specification limit of 30 minutes and a lower specification limit of 20 minutes. Management wants to have four-sigma performance for the lab. Is the lab capable of this level of performance?
