Example 3.5Assuming the number of defects in a part isλ= 5, What is the expected number of defects in a part? What is the probability of two defects?Up to two defects?Expected number of defects = 5Pro...

The Poisson distribution approximates the binomial distribution when the number of trials in) is large and the probability of each trial (p) is small. In this case the variable sometimes called the ou...

Example 3.3If the probability of failure of one part is 25%, what is the probability that the next two parts out of four are also failures?Example 3.4The probability of a failed part is 5%. If 20 part...

The binomial distribution is characterized by the outcome of each, manufacturing event: each operation can result in a pass or fail. The probability of a pass is equal to 1 minus probability of a fail...

Attribute charts directly measure the rejects in the production operation，as opposed to measuring a particular value of the quality characteristic as in variable processes. They are more common in man...

These examples were developed to show the relationship of variable control charts and six sigma. They can be used as guidelines for communications between an enterprise and its suppliers.Example 3.2aA...

Figures 3.2 and 3.3 are examples of X and R charts showing the solder paste height deposition process for a surface mount technology (SMT) process. Several observations can be made from examining thes...

The control limits are set to three times standard deviation of the sample distribution (s). s can be calculated from a the population standard deviation using the factor d2 according to the central l...
