Introducing Triangular Fuzzy Process Capability Indices to Evaluate Performance of Continuous Production Process

Authors

Abstract:

Process capability indices (PCIs) can be used as an effective tool for measuring product quality and process performance. In classic quality control there are some limitations which prevent a deep and flexible analysis because of the crisp definition of PCA‟s parameters. Fuzzy set theory can be used to add more flexibility to process capability analyses. In this study, the fuzzy X ba and MRx ba control charts are introduced to monitor continuous production process in triangular fuzzy state. Also, fuzzy PCIs are produced when SLs and measurements are triangular fuzzy numbers (TFN). For this aim, a computer program is coded in Matlab software. The fuzzy control charts is applied in Yazd fiber production plant. The results show that in continuous production processes, the better analysis will be performed by using fuzzy measurements. Also, based on the fuzzy capability indices, we can have a flexible analysis of the process performance.

Fuzzy Process Capability Indices: A Review

Process Capability Indices (PCIs) are appropriate tools in order to measure the inherent capability of a process. In statistical process control, there are some uncertainties in data, such as uncertain specification limits and data. In these cases, fuzzy logic can be employed to manage the uncertainties. There are some researches about fuzzy process capability indices and in this paper; we pres...

Understanding Process Capability Indices

1. Introduction A process capability index is a numerical summary that compares the behavior of a product or process characteristic to engineering specifications. These measures are also often called capability or performance indices or ratios; we use capability index as the generic term. A capability index relates the voice of the customer (specification limits) to the voice of the process. A ...

Capability Indices for Rayleigh Process

Monitoring, control and improvement of quality are  important  for companies.  Process capability indices (PCIs) are tools widely used by the industries to determine  the quality of their products and the performance of their manufacturing processes. Classic versions of  these  indices were constructed for processes whose quality characteristics have  a  normal distribution. But, many of these ...

Contributions to process capability indices and plots

This thesis presents contributions within the field of process capability analysis. Process capability analysis deals with how to assess the capability of processes. Based on process capability analysis one can determine how the process performs relative to its product requirements or specifications. An important part within process capability analysis is the use of process capability indices. ...

Unilateral Specification Process Capability Indices under the Fuzzy Analysis

In this study, we process the quality of the product characteristics for unilateral specification, Many industrial products can be characterized as bigger-the-best type or smaller-the-best type. Quality characteristics and process yields of unilateral or bilateral specification products can be evaluated by using process capability indices. Process capability indices Cpl or, Cpu are utilized to ...
