A CUSUM Control Chart to Monitor Wafer Quality
ثبت نشده
چکیده
C-control chart assumes that process nonconformities follow a Poisson distribution. In actuality, however, this Poisson distribution does not always occur. A process control for semiconductor based on a Poisson distribution always underestimates the true average amount of nonconformities and the process variance. Quality is described more accurately if a compound Poisson process is used for process control at this time. A cumulative sum (CUSUM) control chart is much better than a C control chart when a small shift will be detected. This study calculates one-sided CUSUM ARLs using a Markov chain approach to construct a CUSUM control chart with an underlying Poisson-Gamma compound distribution for the failure mechanism. Moreover, an actual data set from a wafer plant is used to demonstrate the operation of the proposed model. The results show that a CUSUM control chart realizes significantly better performance than EWMA. Keywords—Nonconformities; Compound Poisson distribution; CUSUM control chart.

متن کاملMonitoring Lognormal Reliability Data in a Two-Stage Process Using Accelerated Failure Time Model
The reliability data is getting used to monitor and improve the quality of products or services. Nowadays, most of products or services are the results of processes with dependent stages referred to as multi-stage process. In these processes, the quality characteristics are affected by the quality characteristics in the previous stages, called as cascade property. In some cases, it is not possi...
متن کاملA Self-starting Control Chart for Simultaneous Monitoring of Mean and Variance of Simple Linear Profiles
In many processes in real practice at the start-up stages the process parameters are not known a priori and there are no initial samples or data for executing Phase I monitoring and estimating the process parameters. In addition, the practitioners are interested in using one control chart instead of two or more for monitoring location and variability of processes. In this paper, we consider a s...
متن کاملThe Economic Performance of a CUSUM Control Chart for Monitoring Short Production Runs
At the start of a production run, the parameters of the distribution of a quality characteristic are frequently unknown. If the quality characteristic should by monitored on-line by means of a control chart and the production run length is too short, then it is impossible to get a sufficient Phase I number of samples allowing for the correct estimation of parameters and the evaluation of the ch...
متن کاملBayesian Theory with Application to Customer Segment and Consuming Behavior Control for Online Business
In this paper, we follow the model of interpurchase times to achieve heterogeneity across customers. We employ a mixture model to segment customers into three states: super-active, active and inactive. The interpurchase model and mixture model are solved by the hierarchical Bayes via Markov Chain Monte Carlo method. We employ CUSUM chart based on the density of active state to monitor consumer ...
