3  0  0 3

 

• To understand process control and acceptance sampling procedure and their application.
• To learn the concept of reliability.

 

UNIT I             INTRODUCTION AND PROCESS CONTROL FOR VARIABLES                              10

Introduction, definition of quality, basic concept of quality, definition of SQC, benefits and limitation of SQC, Quality assurance, Quality control: Quality cost-Variation in process causes of variation –Theory of control chart- uses of control chart – Control chart for variables – X chart, R chart and ?chart  - process capability – process capability studies and simple problems. Six sigma concepts

 

UNIT II            PROCESS CONTROL FOR ATTRIBUTES                                                                    8

Control chart for attributes –control chart for non conformings– p chart and np chart – control chart for nonconformities– C and U charts, State of control and process out of control identification in charts, pattern study.

 

UNIT III           ACCEPTANCE SAMPLING                                                                                            9

Lot by lot sampling – types – probability of acceptance in single, double, multiple sampling techniques

–  O.C.  curves  –  producer’s  Risk  and  consumer’s  Risk.  AQL,  LTPD,  AOQL  concepts-standard sampling plans for AQL and LTPD- uses of standard sampling plans.

 

UNIT IV          LIFE TESTING – RELIABILITY                                                                                      9

Life testing – Objective – failure data analysis, Mean failure rate, mean time to failure, mean time between  failure,  hazard  rate  –  Weibull  model,  system  reliability,  series,  parallel  and  mixed configuration – simple problems. Maintainability and availability – simple problems. Acceptance sampling based on reliability test – O.C Curves.

 

UNIT V           QUALITY AND RELIABLITY                                                                                         9

Reliability improvements – techniques- use of Pareto analysis – design for reliability – redundancy unit and standby redundancy – Optimization in reliability – Product design – Product analysis – Product development – Product life cycles.

 

 

Note: Use of approved statistical table permitted in the examination.

 

TOTAL: 45 PERIODS

 

 

OUTCOMES:

• Upon successful completion of this course, the students can able to apply the concept of SQC

in process control for reliable component production
