4. C-Spec, Inc., is attempting to determine whether an existing machine is capable of milling an engine part that has a key specification of 4 ± 0.003 inches. After a trial run on this machine, C-Spec has determined that the machine has a sample mean of 4.001 inches with a standard deviation of 0.002 inch. a. Calculate the capability ratio for this machine. b. Calculate the capability index for this machine c. Should C-Spec use this machine to produce this part? d. Explain why? e. Show computation
Management at Webster Chemical Company is concerned as to whether caulking tubes are being properly capped. If a significant proportion of the tubes are not being sealed, Webster is placing its customers in a messy situation. Tubes are packaged in large boxes of 145. Several boxes are inspected, and the following numbers of leaking tubes are found: Sample Tubes Sample Tubes Sample Tubes 1 9 8 7 15 4 2 7 9. 3 16 3 10 17 4 7 11 5 18 3 12 19 6. 2 13 20 8 7 7 14 Total 99 Calculate p-chart three-sigma control limits to assess whether the capping process is in statistical control. The UCL, equals 1 and the LCL, equals 3. (Enter your responses rounded to three decimal places. If your answer for LCL, is negative, enter this value as 0.)
i) The concept of quality is considered to have evolved through stages. However, quality is used to describe a prestigious product. It is one that fits the intended customer’s requirements. Impliedly, the product should possess attributes that enables it meet the customer’s requirement or specification. Now, in identifiably distinctive manner, differentiate quality control from the others or quality assurance. ii) Briefly define hazard, when uncertainty is defined as being a situation in which the determination of risk factors is not possible. It is difficult therefore to calculate the effect of uncertainty upon the tender, and a discussion of uncertainty is out of place here. A builder will see risks in two distinct categories: (a). those that can be insured against and,( b). those that cannot be insured against.
why does the control the experiement not fall within the expected ranges of controls (quality control)?
Jim's Outfitters, Inc., makes custom western shirts. The shirts could be flawed in various ways, including flaws in the weave or color of the fabric, loose buttons or decorations, wrong dimensions, and uneven stitches. Jim randomly examined 10 shirts, with the following results shows below. Shirt 1 23456 ∞ 7 8 9 10 Defects 10 05 10 4 9 1 4 5 4 a. Assuming that 10 oberservation are adequate for these purpose, determine the three-sigma control limits for defects per shirt. (what are the UCLC and LCLC) b. Suppose that the next shirt has 12 flaws. What can you say abou the process now?
