    An automatic filling machine fills 1-liter bottles of cola, with a mean output of 1.0 liter and standard deviation of 0.01 liter. Samples of 25 observations are taken to monitor output. The upper and lower control limits that will include roughly 97% of sample means when in control are 1.00434 and 0.99566 respectively. Given sample means of 1.005, 1.001, 0.998, 1.002, 0.995 and 0.999, the 1st and 5th means fall outside the limits, so the process is not in control.

    An automatic filling machine is used to fill 1 – liter bottles of cola.

    The machine’s output is


    approximately normal with a mean of 1.0 liter and a standard deviation of .01 liter. Output is
    monitored using means of samples of 25 observations.
    a. Determine upper and lower control limits that will include roughly 97 percent of the
    sample means when the process is in control.

    The upper and lower control limits that will include roughly 97 percent of the sample
    means when the process is in control are,
    2.17∗0.01
    Upper limit = 1+ √ 25 = 1.00434

    2.17∗0.01
    Lower limit = 1− √ 25 = 0.99566

    b. Given these sample means: 1.005 1.001 .998 1.002 .995 and .999 is the process in
    control?

    We can see that the 1st and 5th sample means are falling outside the control limits. Thus
    the process is not within control.
