7QC Tools :- It 

is basically a problem solving tool. This are very
important tool to identify, analyze and solve the problem. It is used to find
solution in systematic manner.
Other names of 7QC tools is :-
(1) The Old Seven. (2) The First Seven. (3) The Basic Seven.

7QC tools are given by Kaoru Ishikawa, a professor of engineering at
Tokyo University and the father of "quality circles".

Now what is problem ?


Problem is gap between the ideal situation and current situation.
It is impossible that No problem is present in our work station, home or 
anywhere. There may some little problem everywhere.

Tip :- To solve a problem we have to sure , what is the actual problem
before working too hard to solve the problem.

7 Basic tools names and inventor :-


No one tell you about this accurately, other then us

(1) Check sheet :- It is used to collet the data.


Dr , Kaoru Ishikawa is not inventor of checksheet but he made popular
to checksheet.
Defect location or concentration diagram is a type of check sheet.
Note :- Inspection report is not called check sheet.

(2) Pareto Chart :- It is used to priorities the data.


Weighted pareto is also a type of pareto chart.
It is invented by Vilfredo Pareto.
He is given 80 / 20 principal.
(3) Stratification, Graphs , PFD :- To understand the problem deeply.
It includes flow chart, bar graph, pie graph, line graph, radar graph and
stratification.

(4) Fish bone diagram :- To find out the actual cause of problem.


Invented by Dr. Kaoru Ishikawa, also called Ishikawa diagram and cause
and effect diagram.

(5) Histogram :- To check centering, spread and shape of the process.


It is invented by Karl Pearson follower of Sir Francis Galton.

(6) Scatter diagram :- It is used to know co-relation between two 


variables. It is invented by Sir Francis Galton, Scatter diagram also
known as x y chart.

(7) Control charts and Run charts :- Control chart is used to know


weather the process in control or not. Invented by Dr. Walter Andrew
Shewhart in 1924. He also invented PDCA cycle.
