Question

Fujiyama Electronics needs to construct x- and s-charts for circuit boards that are purchased from an outside supplier. A critical dimension is the distance between two holes on the board that are supposed to be 5 cm apart. Use the data, consisting of 30 samples of size 4 found below. What conclusions do you reach concerning the state of the process? Is it under control? Why or why not?

Explanation / Answer

Average =(Sum of samples)/ Total Number of Samples

Range= Max-Min

Standard Deviation= Square Root(1/N*Sum (xi-Average)^2) let xi be each value

Control limit= Standard Deviation(+or -) (3*Standard deviation)

Average 5.17 5.05 5.02 4.87 Standard Deviation 0.51 0.49 0.52 0.37 Range 1.95 2.21 1.87 1.30 Control Limit (Upper Limit) 6.71 6.53 6.58 5.99 Control Limit (Lower Limit) 3.64 3.58 3.47 3.75
