Statistical Process Control II (SPC II)
Statistical Process Control (SPC) is widely used in manufacturing to control and ensure quality products. Statistical methods are reviewed and concepts of probability and variation are introduced. Attribute and variables control charts are constructed and then interpreted for in-control and out-of-control conditions. Once processes are "in control", process capability studies can be conducted to determine the probability of the process producing defective product. Process capability is introduced.
