SPC Example 1

This document contains data from measurements of pasta weight (in ounces) over 10 hours from 4 boxes. X-bar and R control charts were created to analyze process variation over time. The X-bar chart shows that the process mean generally stayed within the upper and lower control limits. The R chart indicates that the process variation was in control throughout. Process capability was also analyzed, showing that the process mean was more than 3 standard deviations away from the upper and lower specification limits, indicating a capable process with low defect rates.
