Question: Auto pistons are produced in a forging process, and the variability of the diameter is a critical factor that must be controlled. From five samples
Auto pistons are produced in a forging process, and the variability of the diameter is a critical factor that must be controlled. From five samples collected on 5 different days (one sample each day), each containing 10 pistons, the mean and the range of the diameters have been measured as follows:
| Day | Mean (mm) | Range (mm) |
| 1 | 154.9 | 4.4 |
| 2 | 153.2 | 4.8 |
| 3 | 151.6 | 4.3 |
| 4 | 153.5 | 4.8 |
| 5 | 156.6 | 4.5 |
Assuming the confidence level 99.73%, choose the right control chart for controlling the variability of the diameter and find its upper control limit?
Note: Enter the value of the upper control limit after rounding to two decimal places.
