In the manufacture of metal fasteners in a progressive die operation, and other industrial situations, important quality dimensions cannot be measured on a continuous scale, and parts are classified into groups using a step gauge. This article proposes a version of exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control charts applicable to monitoring the grouped data for process shifts. The run l...

Editor’s Note: This article and the first two accompanying discussions were presented orally at the Technomeirics session of the 33rd Annual Fall Technical Conference in Houston, Texas, October 25-27. 1989. The conference was cosponsored by the Chemical and Process Industries and the Statistics Divisions of the American Society for Quality Control and the Section on Physical and Engineering Sci...

In usual quality control methods, the of a process or product is evaluated by monitoring one more characteristics using their corresponding distributions. However, when characteristic defined through relationship between response and independent variables, regime referred to as profiles monitoring. this article, we improve performance Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Range (EWMAR) charts, ...

Online monitoring of the multivariate coefficient variation (MCV) can be interest in many real situations which dispersion a process is meant to remain constant with regard its position. To this aim, several control charts have been recently proposed literature. In paper, new one-sided adaptive monitor MCV are proposed. The chart applies variable sampling interval (VSI) strategy on an exponenti...

The basic purpose of the economic design of the control charts is to find the optimum control charts parameters to minimize the process cost. In this paper, an R package, edcc (economic design of control charts), which provides a numerical method to find the optimum chart parameters is presented using the unified approach of the economic design. Also, some examples are given to illustrate how t...

The design of control charts in statistical quality control addresses the optimal selection of the design parameters such as the sampling frequency and the control limits; and includes sensitivity analysis with respect to system parameters such as the various process parameters and the economic costs of sampling. The advent of more complicated control chart schemes has necessitated the use of M...

Control charts are used to detect assignable causes in different manufacturing and nonmanufacturing processes. This study presents a new maximum exponentially weighted moving average (Max-EWMA) chart for joint unit interval time magnitude monitoring. To this end, beta distribution is considered whereas simplex magnitude. Average run length (ARL), standard deviation of (SDRL), quantiles evaluate...
