R1 , R2 … , Rm : ranges of m samples
Phase I Application of x and R Charts
• Equations
q 5-4 and 5-5 are trial control limits.
– Determined from m initial samples.
• Typically 20-25 subgroups of size n between 3 and 5.
– Any
y out-of-control p
points should be examined for assignable
g
causes.
• If assignable causes are found, discard points from calculations
and revise the trial control limits.
• Continue examination until all points plot in control
control.
• Adopt resulting trial control limits for use.
• If no assignable cause is found, there are two options.
1. Eliminate point as if an assignable cause were found and revise limits.
2. Retain point and consider limits appropriate for control.
– If there are many out-of-control points they should be examined
for patterns that may identify underlying process problems.
Example 5-1
Assume spec tolerance is 1.5 +/- 0.5 micron.
Nonconformance probability:
Cp: Process Capability Ratio (PCR)
Note: 6σ spread is the basic definition of process capability. 3σ above mean and 3σ below.
R
If σ is unknown, we can use σˆ = . σˆ in the example is 0.1398.

• There is no mathematical or
statistical
t ti ti l relationship

the control limits and the
specification limits.
Rational Subgroups
D1 = d2 - 3d3
D2 = d2 + 3d3
d2 : mean of distribution of relative range
d3 : standard deviation of distribution of relative range
Interpretation of x and R Charts
Effect of Nonnormality on x and R Charts
For L = 3, n = 5, k = 2.
Average run length (r): shift is detected in the rth sample.
In the example.
B 5 = c 4 − 3 1 − c 42 and B 6 = c 4 + 3 1 − c 42
Assume no standard is given for σ . ⇒ Need to estimate.
m preliminary samples, each of size n.
si : standard deviation for i th sample
S
: unbiased estimator for σ
c4
s chart has the following parameters:
