It was conducted during the spring semester of 2017. I would first like to thank my supervisor at Haldex, Roman Berg, and Annika Carlius for their daily support and guidance which made this project possible. I would also like to thank the quality department, production engineers and operators at Haldex for all insight in different subjects. Finally, I would like to thank my supervisor at KTH, Jerzy Mikler, for his support during my thesis. All of your combined expertise have been very valuable. Stockholm, July 2017 Axl Elisson Abstract The application of statistical process control (SPC) requires normal distributed data that is in statistical control in order to determine valid process capability indices and to set control limits that reflects the process’ true variation. This study examines a case of several non-normal processes and evaluates methods to estimate the process capability and set control limits that is in relation to the processes’ distributions. Box-Cox transformation, Johnson transformation, Clements method and process performance indices were compared to estimate the process capability and the Anderson-Darling goodness-of-fit test was used to identify process distribution. Control limits were compared using Clements method, the sample standard deviation and from machine tool variation.

  • Process Capability Analysis
    6 Process capability analysis In general, process capability indices have been quite controversial. (Ryan, 2000, p. 186) Overview Capability indices are widely used in assessing how well processes perform in relation to customer requirements. The most widely used indices will be defined and links with the concept of sigma quality level established. Minitab facilities for capability analysis of both measurement and attribute data will be introduced. 6.1 Process capability 6.1.1 Process capability analysis with measurement data Imagine that four processes produce bottles of the same type for a customer who specifies that weight should lie between 485 and 495 g, with a target of 490 g. Imagine, too, that all four processes are behaving in a stable and predictable manner as indicated by control charting of data from regular samples of bottles from the processes. Let us suppose that the distribution of weight is normal in all four cases, with the parameters in Table 6.1. The four distributions of weight are displayed in Figure 6.1, together with reference lines showing lower specification limit (LSL), upper specification limit (USL) and Target (T). How well are these processes performing in relation to the customer requirements? In the long term the fall-out, in terms of nonconforming bottles, would be as shown in the penultimate column of Table 6.1. The fall-out is given as number of parts bottles) per million (ppm) that would fail to meet the customer specifications. The table in Appendix 1 indicates that these fall-outs correspond to sigma quality levels of 4.64, 3.50, 2.81 and 3.72 respectively for lines 1–4.

Process Capability Analysis is an important part of an overall quality improvement program. Here we discuss the following topics relating to process capability and Six Sigma: 1. Process capability concepts and fundamentals 2. Connection between the process capability and Six Sigma 3. Specification limits and process capability indices 4. Short‐term and long‐term variability in the process and how they relate to process capability 5. Calculating the short‐term or long‐term process capability 6. Using the process capability analysis to: assess the process variability establish specification limits (or, setting up realistic tolerances) determine how well the process will hold the tolerances (the difference between specifications) determine the process variability relative to the specifications reduce or eliminate the variability to a great extent 7. Use the process capability to answer the following questions: Is the process meeting customer specifications? How will the process perform in the future? Are improvements needed in the process? Have we sustained these improvements, or has the process regressed to its previous unimproved state? 8. Calculating process

Col. Guadalupe. Culiacán Sinaloa, México Abstract In this research some techniques for process statistical control were applied, such as frequency histograms, Pareto diagrams, process capability analysis and control charts. The purpose of this investigation was to reduce the variability of the canned tomato paste filling process coming from a tomato processing food industry that has problems with the net weight of their processed product. The results of the process capability analysis showed that 35.52% of the observations were out of the specifications during the months in study, which generates a real capability of the process (Cpk) of 0.124, and it indicates that the process does not have enough ability to fulfill the required specifications by the firm. The process potential capability (Cp) is 0.676. Given that Cpk < Cp, then it is concluded that the process is not centered, indicating that the measurement of the filling process is away from the center of the specifications. The process fits 0.371 sigma between the process mean and the nearest specification limit.
