Statistical Quality Control Notes

Statistical Quality Control (SQC) employs statistical methods to monitor and control processes, aiming to enhance efficiency and product quality. Key techniques include descriptive statistics, Statistical Process Control (SPC), and acceptance sampling, with tools like control charts to track process performance. While SQC offers benefits such as cost reduction and improved quality, it has limitations including unsuitability for small batches and the need for statistical expertise.

Statistical Quality Control (SQC) - Notes

1. Introduction to SQC

Statistical Quality Control (SQC) is the use of statistical methods to monitor and control a process. It

ensures that the process operates efficiently and produces high-quality products.

2. Objectives of SQC

- Detect and prevent defects

- Reduce variation

- Ensure consistency

- Enhance customer satisfaction

3. Types of Techniques in SQC

(a) Descriptive Statistics: Summarizes data using mean, standard deviation, etc.

(b) Statistical Process Control (SPC): Uses control charts to monitor processes.

(c) Acceptance Sampling: Decides acceptance of batches based on samples.

4. Control Charts

- X-bar Chart: Monitors process average.

- R Chart: Monitors range or variability.

- p-chart: For proportion of defectives.

- c-chart: For count of defects.

5. Elements of Control Charts

- CL: Central Line

- UCL: Upper Control Limit

- LCL: Lower Control Limit


6. Acceptance Sampling

- Single Sampling Plan

- Double Sampling Plan

- Sequential Sampling Plan

7. Benefits of SQC

- Reduces cost

- Improves efficiency

- Ensures consistent quality

- Early detection of problems

8. Limitations of SQC

- Not suitable for very small batches

- Requires statistical knowledge

- Detection, not elimination
