Simultaneous Acceptance Control Charts for Products with Multiple Correlated Characteristics
نویسنده
چکیده
Acceptance control charts establish control limits based on specification limits for very capable processes where the mean is permitted to vary. This paper deals with designing such charts when a product has two or more correlated characteristics that must all simultaneously conform to specification limits for the product to be acceptable. We extend past work by solving the general correlated multivariate case, and by allowing a more general hypothesis test. We find the control limits and sample sizes for each characteristic that minimize sampling costs. The problem is a convex nonlinear optimization problem, and optimal solutions are found using multi-dimensional search.

Multivariate control chats are generally used in situations where the simultaneous monitoring or control of two or more related quality characteristics is necessary. In most processes in the real world, distribution of the process characteristics are unknown or at least non-normal, so the non-parametric or distribution-free charts are desirable. Most non-parametric statistical process-control t...
