SPC Training

Statistical Process Control (SPC) is a method of using statistical analysis to monitor and control a process. SPC involves collecting numerical data from a process, arranging the measurements into patterns to allow for predictions of performance, and comparing actual performance to targets to determine if corrective action is needed. SPC helps improve quality, reduce waste, decrease costs, and increase customer satisfaction by identifying variation in a process and determining when adjustments are required to keep the process within control limits. Key SPC tools include control charts, histograms, check sheets, Pareto diagrams, and cause-and-effect diagrams which are used to visualize process data, identify sources of variation, and determine appropriate corrective actions.

Statistical Process Control

Introduction
What is Quality ? Totality of characteristics of an entity that bear on its ability to satisfy stated and implied needs of customers. What is Quality Control ? Quality control is the process through which we measure actual quality performance, compare it with a standard, and act on the difference

What is SPC
Controlling the process through the use of statistics
Statistical Taking of measurements and the arrangement of those measurements in clear pattern to allow predictions to be made on performance Process Any activity involving a combination of Man, Machine, Material, Method, Tools working together to produce a final product Comparing actual performance with target and what corrective action is necessary to achieve the target

Statistical Process Control

What is SPC contd.


Statistical Process Control is a standardized method of identifying variation in a process using numerical performance information. SPC is a decision making tool telling when to adjust the process and when to leave it alone. SPC is a time series based methodology, giving information as to when changes in the process occur.

Statistical Process Control

What is Time Series Management

Normal variation in the Process

Change occurred in the process. What happened !

Statistical Process Control

Why should we use SPC ?


No Industrial process or machine is able to produce consecutive Items which are identical in Appearance, Length, Thickness, Diameter etc.

Differences will occur due to sources of variation which are inherent in the machine such as Vibration, Speed, Power etc.
The extent of the variation can be measured and is called Machine Capability.

Pareto Diagram
Pareto Diagram helps in identifying and isolating Vital few factors from Trivial many

70% to 80% of the defects will arise from 10% - 20% of the causes. These are called Vital few which are highlighted for special attention. Elimination of these Vital few cause will considerably reduce the total no. of defects.
The remaining 20% - 30% of the defects are from various causes which are called Trivial many

Scatter Diagram are used to examine the relations between two variables to find whether they are related, by controlling the independent variable, the dependent variable is also controlled. Scatter Diagram is a Graphical plot of characteristic on Y- axis and the influencing variable on X- axis Scatter Diagram is used in explaining the behavior of a process and the means of controlling it.

Machine Capability Analysis


Machine capability study enables us to separate variation due to machine and assess its capability to produce to specifications

Purpose
To identify the pattern of variation of output
To estimate the capability of machine and compare to product specification To estimate % of out of specification parts which might occur if the machine proves incapable
39

Statistical Process Control

Machine Capability Studies


Pre-study Requirements
Specify the product characteristic to be studied and its specifications Schedule 50 consecutive items Specify an uninterrupted run under normal operating conditions with the machine Pre-set at nominal Ensure that all parts and materials used in the study are themselves to the required standards and that operator is fully trained Provide calibrated measuring equipment

Conducting The Study

Record measurements in sequence from an uninterrupted production run. If any non-planned interruption occurs ( Tool breakage, machine fault ) discard the partially collected sample and start again Identify each part by its sequence. Retain all parts until analysis of study data is over Observe process and note any unusual occurrence along with the sequence number of the parts produced immediately after the event If a single measurement is found to be way out of line with others, the part should be examined for any special cause. Record the results of such an examination. Only if it is verified that the cause is not due to the machine, may the part be excluded for determining the capability
42

Statistical Process Control

Machine Capability Studies


Actions to be taken If equipment is not capable
Work on the machine to improve capability and repeat capability evaluation Check to see whether the design limits / tolerances / engineering specifications can be extended Alternative machine or process should be sought to provide capability
43

Variation and Process Control


If there is no variation, there would be very few operational problems. All parts would be identical to each other and the entire output would be within specification ( or all would be rejected ) There is a variation among the products from any manufacturing process We would like to completely get rid of variation but we know that cant be done The goal is to be able to measure / identify variation and then work to minimize it

46

Statistical Process Control

Chance Causes ( Inherent )


Sources of variation which are built into the process and will be caused by such problems as Vibration, Speed, Power etc., These are the sources of random variation, the extent of which can be measured and monitored A large number are in effect at any time Each has an individual effect that is too small to mention Only a change in the system will reduce that part of the variability Only management has the ability to make changes Remain constant over time
47

Statistical Process Control

Assignable Causes
Sources of variation which will be due to specific identifiable causes such as variation in Raw material, Operator, Tool wear, Wrong setting etc., these removal are usually the responsibility of someone who is connected directly with the operation Very few in effect at any time The effect is measurable They can be found and eliminated The machine operator is best able to discover and make changes They occur infrequently in an unpredictable manner
48

Statistical Process Control

Chance & Assignable Causes


Chance Causes
Normal errors in handling material and machine elements Normal play in machine slides Hardness within Tolerances Small variation in job clamping Temperature change

Control Charts
Control charts are Visual representation of variations in the selected parameters over a time A Control chart is simply a Run Chart with statistically determined upper and lower limits drawn on either side of the process Control charts are used to assess and maintain the stability of the process Control chart indicates whether the process variation is natural and to be expected ( Chance cause ) or due to special cause (Assignable cause) Control chart provides a common language for communications about the performance of a process
51

Statistical Process Control

Control Charts
SPC involves control followed by Improvement Process are initially brought under control by identifying and eliminating the Assignable Cause variation. A controlled situation is one when the process is operating only under the influence of Chance Cause ( Inherent ) variation Control charts is a simple Graphical device which will help to identify the presence of any Assignable Cause In short, Control chart will indicate How well the job is running It gives when the job is running satisfactorily Or when something has gone wrong needing corrective action

Specification limits / Drawing limits Describe what the customer requires the process to produce or what the product measurements must be.
Control limits Describe what the process is actually giving you. If the UCL is above the USL, the LCL is below the LSL, or both, it means that your process will predictably give you a certain (almost certainly too high) percentage of out-of-spec output
