Project#4 – Methods of Quality Improvement



Individual Project


The data set shows 72 samples (for 72 hours) of size n=7 collected to test the production process of a filling machine for soft drink bottling. The target filling is 20 fluid ounces.



Your tasks:


Select a random sample of 24 hours of data. [Feel free to do it manually, if you cannot use the sample selection procedure in the software.] Using the sample data, accomplish the following:


Part 1


1. Construct an x-bar
chart. Need to use graph paper.


2. Calculate and plot the centerline and upper and lower control limits for the charts.


3. Calculate and plot the A, B and C zone boundaries of the x-bar chart.


4. Plot the 24 sample means on the
x-bar
chart.


5. Based on
x-bar findings, is the process under statistical control? Explain and justify your answer.



Part 2


6.
Construct an R-chart. Need to use graph paper.


7. Calculate and plot the centerline and upper and lower control limits for the charts.


8. Calculate and plot the A, B and C zone boundaries of the R-chart.


9. Plot the sample ranges on the R-chart.


10. Analyze the pattern of the R-chart.


11. Based on R-chart findings, is the process under statistical control? Explain and justify your answer.



Part 3



12. Theoretically, what is the difference between x-bar chart and R-chart? Explain briefly.


13. How are they used? That is, what is their purpose? Explain briefly.



Part 4



14. Compare the findings from your x-bar chart and R-chart.


15. Explain why rational sub-groupings are used in constructing control charts?


16. What are the major findings from the study? Explain briefly.


17. What are your conclusions from the study? Explain briefly.
