Control Chart Exercises

This document provides instructions for measuring a process using statistical sampling and analysis. It describes taking samples, calculating sample statistics like the mean and range, and using those values to compute control limits and draw x-charts and R-charts to determine if the process is in or out of statistical control. It also includes learning exercises that apply these statistical process control techniques.

Learning Exercise 1

a. Determine the mean and range of each sample


and compute the average mean and range.
b. Calculate control limits for range bar. Obtain
factor A2 from the table.
c. Compute upper and lower limits for x-chart and
draw the control chart. Highlight assignable
variation, if any and state whether the process
is in control or not statistically.

Learning Exercise 2

An operator trainee is
attempting to monitor a
filling process that has an
overall average of 705 cc.
The average range is 17 cc.
If you use a sample size of 6,
what are the upper and
lower control limits for
the x-bar chart and R-
chart?

Learning Exercise 4
Rolls of coiled wire are
monitored using a c-
chart. Eighteen rolls
have been examined,
and the number of
defects per roll has
been recorded in the
table below. Is the
process in control?
Plot the values on a
control chart using 3-
standard deviation
control limits.
