Workshop on Producing Zero Defect through Statistical Techniques
(Implementing M S A + S P C on Production Shop)
11 – 12 February 2009: New Delhi
CII-Institute of Quality is offering a comprehensive workshop with the support of Quality Council of India (QCI) on Producing Zero Defect Through Statistical Techniques (Implementing M.S.A + S.P.C on production shop) on 11 – 12 February, 2009 at New Delhi. The workshop will address different statistical methods to be used for evaluating and analyzing the capability of the measurement systems as well as controlling manufacturing process variations to achieve zero defects in mass production environment.
New era began in Indian Industries in practicing quality, particularly since quality movement started in India in 1987. In view of achieving more business success in the open market, the Industries are gearing to adopt Zero Defect Approach.
In the manufacturing industries controlling rejections of an on-going process is really tough tasks for the Process Managers. Applications of Statistical techniques like SPC (Statistical Process Control) are used for controlling the process variations in such industries. Implementations of SPC tools on shop floor help a company to predict rejections well-in advance, and to initiate preventive action to avoid likely rejections, which may occur in future.
However, the effectiveness of SPC tools, are totally dependent on reliability of the measurement data. Automotive Industries Action Group (AIAG) has developed statistical techniques for analysis of measurement process variations, which has been now published as a reference manual MSA (Measurement System Analysis). Performing an analysis of a measurement process through Bias, Linearity, and Repeatability & Reproducibility (GRR) helps us to define the capability of a measurement tool and its selection, as well as, to reduce measurement process variations. Stability study is designed for monitoring the performance of the measurement process on long run. Thus applying MSA techniques we can generate the reliable measurement data, which in turn helps the company in achieving better process control and resulting with zero defects, in measurement.
For the manufacturing industries, AIAG has also formulated SPC techniques, which can be used for evaluating capabilities of the manufacturing processes. The process capability indices like Cp, Cpk, Pp; Ppk helps us for defining capabilities of these processes to meet the design specifications. This capability indices are also becomes benchmarks in continual improvement of the process. Control charts are another effective tools in SPC used especially for monitoring performance of on-going process. Control charts also help the operator to take the preventive measures well in advance and much before a process may likely to produce actual rejection. Thus producing zero defects can be achieved in practice, as the organizational aim.
