a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The percentage of parts that will not meet the specifications.

Introduction: Deviations from a standard is inevitable in a production process for which tolerance limits are fixed but products that exceed the tolerance limits are removed and corrected, which is known as the control process.

b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The values within which 95.44 percent of sample mean of the process will fall, when the process is in control and sample is n=16.

Specifications for a part for a 3-D printer state that the part should weigh between 24 and25 ounces. The process that produces the parts has a mean of 24.5 ounces and a standard deviation of .2 ounce. The distribution of output is normal. What percentage of parts will not meet the weight specs? Within what values will 95.44 percent of the sample means of this process fall if samples of n = 16 are taken and the process is in control (random)? Using the control limits from part b, would the following sample means be in control? 24.52, 24.53, 24.44, 24.51, 24.41, 24.39 An automatic filling machine is used to fill 1-liter bottles of cola. The machine’s output is approxi- mately normal with a mean of 1.0 liter and a standard deviation of .01 liter. Output is monitored using means of samples of 25 observations. Determine upper and lower control limits that will include roughly 97 percent of the sample means when the process is in control. Given the following sample means—1.005,…
A can filling process at a beverage manufacturing factory is assumed to be in control with limits of 84 ±3 had sample averages for the x-bar chart of the following:87.1,87, 87.2, 89, 90, 88.5, 89.5, and 88.

At Gleditsia Triacanthos Company, a certain manufactured part is deemed acceptable if its length is between 12.45 to 12.55 inches. The process is normally distributed with an average of 12.49 inches and a standard deviation of 0.014 inches. a) is the process capable of meeting specifications? b) Does the process meet specifications?
