Common Sense Statistical Process Control
Common Sense Statistical Process Control
Applied Basic SPC
This practical, hands-on workshop gives every employee the skills necessary to monitor their own quality and participate in Six Sigma and TQM efforts.
The seminar takes a common-sense approach that applies to assembly and administrative as well as machining and process operations. It provides a common language and approach for discussion of process issues and process improvement.

Introduction
-
How SPC & Six Sigma can prevent errors before they occur.
-
How assemblers in a window factory reduced their defect rate by 95% using attribute charts.
Variation & Process Capability
-
The nature of variation -- why no two things are, ever, exactly alike.
-
The difference between Control and Specification Limits and how their relationship determines process quality.
-
How to distinguish Inherent Variation from Assignable Variation.
Attributes & Variables
-
How to use Attributes and Variables to measure the control of ANY process.
Variable Control Charts
-
To use simple run charts for easy monitoring.
-
How to plot X-BAR-R charts and interpret them for improved control.
-
Five signs of an out-of-control process and what to do when these signs appear.
-
Why a process may be out of control but still produce acceptable quality.
Attribute Control Charts
-
To use attribute charts for difficult-to-measure features.
-
Five types of Attribute charts and how to select the most appropriate chart.
When, What & Why To Chart
