4. Defective and Defect Defective
A unit of product that does not meet customers requirement or specification.
Also known as a non-conforming unit.
Example
A base casting that fails porosity specification is a defective.
A disc clamp that does not meet the parallelism specification is a defective.
5. Defect
A flaw or a single quality characteristic that does not meet customers requirement or specification.
Also known as a non-conformity.
There can be one or more defects in a defective.
Example
A dent on a VCM pole that fails customers specification is a defect.
A stain on a cover that fails customers specification is a defect. Defective and Defect

12. Binomial Distribution Commonly used in Acceptance Sampling, where p is the probability of success (defective rate), n is the number of trials (sample size), and x is the number of successes (defectives found).
13. Binomial Distribution Properties:
each trial has only 2 possible outcomes - success or failure
probability of success p remains constant throughout the n trials
the trials are statistically independent
the mean and variance of a Binomial Distribution are

17. Discrete Distributions
18. Poisson Distribution This distribution have been found to be relevant for applications involving error rates, particle count, chemical concentration, etc, where ? is the mean number of events (or defect rate) within a
given unit of time or space.
19. Poisson Distribution Properties:
number of outcomes in a time interval (or space region) is independent of the outcomes in another time interval (or space region)
probability of an occurrence within a very short time interval (or space region) is proportional to the time interval (or space region)
probability of more than 1 outcome occurring within a short time interval (or space region) is negligible
the mean and variance for a Poisson Distribution are

25. p Chart Fraction non-conforming (p)
Ratio of number of defectives (or non-conforming items) in a population to the number of items in that population.
Sample fraction non-conforming (p)
Ratio of number of defectives (d) in a sample to the sample size (n), i.e.
26. The underlying principles of the p chart are based on the binomial distribution.
This means that if a process has a typical fraction non-conforming, p, the mean and variance of the distribution for ps are computed from the binomial equation, giving: p Chart
27. The p chart also assumes a symmetrical bell-shape distribution, with symmetrical control limits on each side of the center line.
This implies that the binomial distribution is approximately close to the shape of the normal distribution, which can happen under certain conditions of p and n:
p ? 1/2 and n > 10 implying np > 5
For other values of p, the general guideline is to have np > 10 to get a satisfactory approximation of the normal to the binomial. p Chart
28. p Chart Following Shewharts principle, the Center Line and Control Limits of a p chart are:
29. If the sample size is not constant, then the Control Limits of a p chart may be computed by either method:
a) Variable Control Limits
where ni is the actual sample size of each sampling i
b) Control Limits Based on Average Sample Size
where n is the average (or typical) sample size of all the samples p Chart
30. When to Use Control Limits Based on Average Sample Size instead of Variable Control Limits
Smallest subgroup size, nmin, is at least 30% of the largest subgroup size, nmax.
Future sample sizes will not differ greatly from those previously observed.
When using Control Limits Based on Average Sample Size, the exact control limits of a point should be determined and examined relative to that value if:
There is an unusually large variation in the size of a particular sample
There is a point which is near the control limits.

36. Establish Trial Control Limits When to use it?
New process, modified process, no historical data available to calculate p
How to do it?
Calculate p based on the preliminary 20 to 25 subgroups.
Calculate the trial control limits using the formula mentioned in slide 21 or 22.
Sample values of p from the preliminary subgroups to be plotted against the trial control limits.
Any points exceed the trial control limits should be investigated.
If assignable causes for these points are discovered, they should be discarded and new trial control limits to be determined.
37. np Chart If the sample size is constant, it is possible to base a control chart on the number nonconforming (np), rather than the fraction nonconforming (p).
The Center Line and Control Limits of an np chart are:

satisfied results in a defect or nonconformity.
The c chart is
a control chart for the total number of defects in an inspection unit
based on the normal distribution as an approximation for the Poisson distribution, which can happen when:

e.g. a HSA, a media, a PCBA
This is an entity chosen for convenience of record-keeping.
It may constitute more than 1 unit of product.
e.g. a HSA, both surfaces of a media, 10 pieces of PCBA

Nature of application
60. Variables vs Attributes Charts Attributes Control Charts facilitate monitoring of more than 1 quality characteristics.
Variables Control Charts provide leading indicators of trouble; Attributes Control Charts react after the process has actually produced bad parts.
For a specified level of protection against process drift, Variables Control Charts require a smaller sample size.
