A company is measuring the time it takes to complete an order. Twenty-five samples of size 6 resulted in an average of 80 minutes with an average range of 20 minutes. Find control limits for the appropriate control chart(s) that would be used to monitor this process.
Both x-bar and R-chart can be used
Mean = 80,
R-bar = 20.
From the table of control chart factors for a sample size of 6, A2= 0.483, D3= 0, and D4= 2.004.
Control limits for the x-bar chart are:
LCL = 80 - 0.483(20) = 70.34
UCL = 80 + 0.483(20) = 89.66
Control limits for the R-chart are: LCL = 0
UCL = 2.004(20) = 40.08

Twenty five samples of size 1000 each were drawn from a manufacturing process and the number of defectives in each sample was counted. The average sample proportion was 0.05. The upper control limit for the p chart is:
Twenty-five samples, each consisting of 150 loan applications at a bank resulted in a total of 35 applications that had some type of error. Compute the control limits for a p-chart. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to three decimal places.
Twenty samples of 100 items each were inspected when a process was considered to be operating satisfactorily. In the 20 samples, a total of 135 items were found to be defective. (a) What is an estimate of the proportion defective when the process is in control? (b) What is the standard error of the proportion if samples of size 100 will be used for statistical process control? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (c)Compute the upper and lower control...

Five samples of size 4 were taken from a process. The average of the range values was 2.35. The average of the sample means was 19.64. What is the upper control limit of the X-bar chart? a. 21.35 b. None of the responses provided is correct. c. 33.72 d. 21.00 e. 26.94
eBook Twenty-Six samples of 110 items each were inspected when a process was considered to be operating satisfactorily. In the 26 samples, a total of 135items were found to be defective. a. What is an estimate of the proportion defective when the process is in control? Round your answer to four decimal places. p= b. What is the standard error of the proportion if samples of size 110 will be used for statistical process control? Round your answer to four...
3. A quality control inspector has taken four samples with five observations each at the Beautiful Shampoo Company, measuring the volume of shampoo per bottle. If the average range for the four samples is 0.4 ounces and the average mean of the observations is 19.8 ounces, develop 3-sigma control limits for the bottling operation.
1. Twenty random samples, each containing 6 items, were taken in a control chart application and it was found that the grand average is = 5.240 cm and = 0.25. a. What would be the upper and lower control limits for the and R charts. b. The following measurements are taken last week: 5.2, 4.5, 5.5, 3.4, 5.3, and 5.5. Is the process still in control?
A company manufactures an electrical cooling fan. When the fans are performing properly, samples of 200 fans average 12.5 watts with an average range of 1.2 watts. A 3σ control chart program is being used to monitor the performance of the fans, and these data from the 10 most recent samples were collected: Sample Number Sample Mean Sample Range 1 12.5 1.1 2 12.45 1.2 3 12.55 0.9 4 12.50 0.8 5 12.45 0.9 6 12.60 1.0 7 12.48 1.4 8 12.46...
A sandwich shop owner takes a daily sample of five consecutive sandwich orders at a random time during the lunch rush and records the time it takes to complete cach order. Past experience indicates that the process mean should be μ = 82 seconds, and the process standard deviation should be σ 22 seconds. Calculate the center line and control limits for an x control chart. (Round your answers to two decimal place CL = LCL sec sec
