1
New cards

the quantitative aspects of quality management

statistical quality control (SQC)

2
New cards

variation that is caused by factors that can be identified and managed

assignable variation

3
New cards

variation that is inherent in the process itself

common variation

4
New cards

What variation can be controlled

assignable variation

5
New cards

What variation is also called random variation

common variation

6
New cards

the center points of a set of numbers (average) 

mean (x-bar) 

7
New cards

a measure of how much individual observations deviate from the mean (spread)

standard deviation (sigma)

8
New cards

the maximum acceptable value for a characteristic

upper specification

9
New cards

the minimum acceptable value for a characteristic

lower specification

10
New cards

the ability of a process to consistently produce a good/deliver a service with a low probability of generating a defect 

process capability 

11
New cards

range of variation that is considered acceptable by the designer or customer

specification limits

12
New cards

range of variation that a process is able to maintain with a high degree of certainty

process capability

13
New cards

ratio of the range of values allowed divided by the range of values produced; shows how well the parts being produced fit into the range specified by the design specifications

process capability index (Cpk)

14
New cards

Cpk larger than one means:

the process is capable

15
New cards

When the two numbers of the Cpk are not close, it means: 

the mean has shifted 

16
New cards

If both Cpk are under one it means:

the distribution is TOO wide

17
New cards

testing a sample of output to determine if the process is producing items within a preselected range

statistical process control

18
New cards

quality characteristics that are classified as either conforming or not conforming

attributes

19
New cards

characteristics that are measured using an actual value 

variable 

20
New cards

what is the average of p hat?

p bar

21
New cards

p bar=

Total # defective units from all samples / (# samples x sample size)

22
New cards

UCL = 

p bar + zSp

23
New cards

LCL= 

p bar - zSp

24
New cards

How do you create a p chart? (5 steps)

Calc sample proportions for each sample (p)
Calc avg of sample proportions (p bar) 
Calc the stand dev of sample proportion (Sp)
Calculate the control limits (UCL and LCL) 
Plot the individual sample proportions, avg of proportions, and control limits 

25
New cards

p charts are used when: 

an item or service is either food or bad (yes no decision) 

26
New cards

c charts are used when:

an item or service may have multiple defects

27
New cards

c bar =

avg number of defects per unit

28
New cards

x bar charts show 

aim target value 

29
New cards

r bar charts show

range

30
New cards

for x bar and r charts, size of sample should be around:

5 units

31
New cards

for x bar and r charts, number of samples should be around:

25 samples 

32
New cards

for x bar and r charts, frequency of samples should be around:

trade off between cost of sampling and benefit of adjusting system 

33
New cards

for x bar and r charts, control limits should be around:

z=3 (unless told otherwise)

34
New cards

performed on goods that already exist to determine what percent of the products conform to specifications; determines quality level and ensure quality is within predetermined level; executed through sampling plan

acceptance sampling

35
New cards

What are the three results possible from acceptance sampling?

Accept
Reject
Retest

36
New cards

What are the disadvantages of acceptance sampling? 

Risk of accepting bad lots and rejecting good lots 
Added planning and documentation
Sample provides less info than 100 percent inspection

37
New cards

What are the advantages of acceptance sampling?

Economy
Less handling damage
Fewer inspectors
Upgrading of the inspection job
Applicability to destructive testing
Entire lot rejection (motivation for improvement)

38
New cards

maximum acceptable percentage of defectives defined by producer

acceptable quality level (AQL)

39
New cards

percent of defectives that defines consumers rejection point

lot tolerance percent defective (LTPD)

40
New cards

the probabiility of rejecting a good lot 

producer risk (alpha) 

41
New cards

The probability of accepting a bad lot

consumer risk (beta)

42
New cards

the AQL in Six sigma states that ___ defective parts out of every 1,000,000 parts might slip through the system
