We want to determine the AOQ for an acceptance samplingplan when the quality of the incoming lots in percent defectiveis 1.5%, and then again when the incoming percent defective is 5%.T he sample size is 80 units for a lot size of 550 units. Furthermore,Pa at 1.5% defective levels is 0.95. At 5% incoming defective levels,the Pa is found to be 0.5. Determine the average outgoing qualityfor both incoming percent defective levels.
For 50 consecutive days, a process engineer has measured the weight of acomponent after it has been coated with a special paint. Each day, she takes a sampleof 10 components. The average across all 500 components (50 days, 10 componentsper day) is 45.343018 grams. The standard deviation across all parts is 0.0076382 gram.When constructing an X-bar chart, what would be the center line and what would be thelines for the upper and lower control limits?
A process filling small bottles with baby formula has a target of 3.1 ounces, plus or minus 0.255 ounce. Two hundred bottles from the process were sampled. The results showed the average amount of formula placed in the bottles to be 3.050 ounces. The standard deviation of the amounts was 0.068 ounce. Determine the value of Upper C Subscript pk. Roughly what proportion of bottles meet the specifications?
The process capability index is (round your response to three decimal places).
