The 8 Control Chart Rules. If a process is in statistical control, most of the points will be near the average, some will be closer to the control limits and no points will be beyond the control limits. The 8 control chart rules listed in Table 1 give you indications that there are special causes of variation present.
The control chart is a graph used to study how a process changes over time. Data are plotted in time order. A control chart always has a central line for the average, an upper line for the upper control limit, and a lower line for the lower control limit. These lines are determined from historical data.
There are a few basic steps to implementing a control chart. Step 1: Define what needs to be controlled or monitored. Step 2: Determine the measurement system that will supply the data. Step 3: Establish the control limits based on some baseline data. Step 4: Collect and chart the data.
Types of Control Charts X-Chart. X-Charts present variable data. P-Chart. P-Charts are used for data that is counted. NP-Chart. NP-Charts are used to present the number of nonconforming or conforming items. C-Chart. U-Chart. MR-Chart. Individual MR-Chart. Custom Data Control Chart.
How to make a control chart Decide on a time period, typically noted on the X-axis of the control chart, to collect the necessary data and establish your control limits. Collect your data and plot it on the control chart. Calculate the average of your data and add a control line.
All control charts have three basic components: a centerline, usually the mathematical average of all the samples plotted. upper and lower statistical control limits that define the constraints of common cause variations. performance data plotted over time.
