Question: 1 . ( 1 5 points ) Solve problem 4 . 1 using Table 4 . 2 . ( a ) Show calculations of the

1.(15 points) Solve problem 4.1 using Table 4.2.
(a) Show calculations of the center line, the UCL and the LCL by hand.
(b) Find the center line, the UCL and LCL by Excel and plot the R chart and the
(c) Did the process appear to be in control based on the charts created?
2.(15 points) Solve problem 4.3 using Table 4.2.
(a) Show calculations of the center line, the UCL and the LCL by hand.
(b) Find the center line, the UCL and the LCL by Excel and plot the R chart and the
(c) Did the process appear to be in control based on the charts created?
3.(20 points) A high voltage power supply should have a normal output voltage of 350V. A
sample of four units is selected each day and tested for process-control purposes. The data shown below give the difference between the observed reading on each unit and the normal voltage times the; that is, xi =(observed voltage on unit i 350) x 10.
Note that an Excel datasheet can be found on Moodle.
(a) Show calculations of the center line, the UCL and the LCL by hand using Table 4.2.
(b) Find the center line, the UCL, the LCL by Excel and plot the R chart and the
(c) Did the process appear to be in control based on the charts created?
(d) If specifications are at 350V +/-5V, find the percentage of conforming power supplies
produced by this process. Assume the voltage is normally distributed.
4.(40 points) The data shown in the table below are and R values for 24 samples of size n=5
taken from a process producing bearings. The measurements are made on the inside diameter of the bearing, with only the last three decimals recorded (i.e.,34.5 should be 0.50345).
(a) Do not use A2, A3, D3 and D4 values from Table 4.2. Setup chart and R charts on this
process. Note that the standard deviation for this production process can be estimated as
(b) Show the control charts using Excel. Does the process seem to be in statistical control?
(c) If necessary, revise the trial control limits by removing the points that fall out the first control
limits and recalculate the new control limits. Have the changes made any difference?
(d) If specifications on this diameter are 0.5030+0.0020, find the percentage of nonconforming
bearings produced by this process. Assume that diameter is normally distributed.
