Abstract In a manufacturing process, a key quality characteristic such as a certain dimension of machined parts can have a systematic shift toward the upper or lower specification limit due to the cutting tool wear. That is, the quality characteristic is a stochastic process with trend. As a result, the process capability and quality loss vary with time and depend on the initial position of the cutting tool. In this setting, decision problems that need to be solved are optimization of replacement time and initial position of the cutting tool. This paper proposes a non-homogenous Wiener process to model the dimensional change of machined parts; and the above-mentioned decision problems are solved through combining this model with a cost model that involves Taguchi quality loss. A real-world example is included to illustrate the appropriateness of the proposed models. The results are useful for both reliability researchers and manufacturing engineers.

The product smaller-the-better (STB) quality characteristics are continually changing and out of specification limits because of the constant stress, wear and others after the product is put into use, which will cause loss because of the product rejected and scrapped. On the basis of the quality viewpoint that product quality loss is present worth of a loss caused as a result of its quality characteristics because its quality characteristic is out of specification and lead to product scrap after the product is put into service, the paper establishes the present worth model of quality loss of STB characteristic based on service life distribution, and proposes the calculation method on the probability density function (PDF) of the product service life based on the technical specifications of STB quality characteristic. It takes the concentricity between the inner cylindrical surface and the outer cylindrical surface of the link bushing as an example to analysis the various factors that impact on the present worth of concentricity quality loss in the new model, and contrast with Taguchi quality loss model. The results show that the new model describes an actual loss that a product imparts to society after the product is put into service, and can reflect the quality loss of STB characteristic in the product service process, and is more realistic than Taguchi quality loss model of STB. The new model extends tolerance design of STB characteristic from the manufacturing stage to the service stage.

The article presents a new approach to the design of technological processes of processing parts on metal cutting machines in the integrated production conditions based on the expected forecast of the parts processing accuracy. The stages of choosing the parameters of processing steps are combined with determining the parameters of the cutting tool and machining attachments by simulation modeling. The design sequence begins with the first operation.

Process capability indices (PCIs) aim to quantify the capability of a process of quality characteristic (X) to meet some specifications that are related to a measurable characteristic of its produced items. One such quality characteristic is life time of items. The specifications are determined through the lower specification limit (L), the upper specification limit (U), and the target value (T). Maiti et al. (2010) have proposed a generalized process capability index that is the ratio of proportion of specification conformance to proportion of desired conformance. Bayesian estimation of the index has been considered under squared error loss function. Normal, exponential (nonnormal), and Poisson (discrete) processes have been taken into account. Bayes estimates of the index have been compared with the frequentist counterparts. Data sets have been analyzed.

Increasing the productivity and the quality of the machined parts are the main challenges of manufacturing industry, in particular for difficult-to-machine materials, such as Inconel 718, employed in aeronautic and aerospace applications. A L18 (2×37) orthogonal array (OA) and signal-to-noise (S/N) were employed to analyze the effect of mill parameters when milling Inconel 718. Experimental results indicated that the cutting tool, depth of cut, cutting speed, feed rate, frequency and coolant have statistical and physical significance on the flank wear, surface roughness and cutting force obtained, respectively.

The aim of the paper is to present some aspects about Onicescu multi-criteria decision method and its application in decision problems regarding environmental quality. The mentioned method is applied to an air pollution problem, namely a problem in which we want to rank the counties from a certain region with respect to a complex air quality characteristic, a characteristic which incorporates all the most important air pollutants that exist in the considered region. Both variants of this method are applied in this paper and a comparison study between them is also made.

In a manufacturing industry, often the quality characteristic under study is found to have only one of the two specification limits viz., upper specification limit (USL) or lower specification limit (LSL). In such cases the process capability indices (PCI) designed for bilateral specifications become inappropriate. However, in the literature only a few indices are available to address this problem. In the present paper, we have made an extensive study of the PCI's for unilateral specifications with a brief discussion of their possible fields of applications and drawbacks, if any. We have also proposed a logical formulation of a parameter of one of these indices which reduces the subjectivity of the index and hence makes it more suitable for practical application. An example, with the computed values of the various PCI's, is discussed to make a comparative study of the performance and inter-relationship between these PCI's. We have concluded the paper with a discussion on the future scope of study in this field.

Real-time monitoring systems have been developed for tooling machine for the purpose of investigating the time-dependent cutting conditions, to detect instantaneous events, and to estimate life of cutting tools and the machine itself. An Energy-based Reliability Model (ERM) has been developed for real-time monitoring of cutting conditions. A standardized inspection process was defined and the two most sensible signals, vibrational signals and temperature increments, are collected to monitor the accumulation of dissipated energy during the tooling processes. The ERM then computes the normalized accumulative dissipated energy in replace of evaluating surface quality of workpiece at the end of each tooling process. This paper focuses on the implementation of ERM in the turning process on a lathe. The experimental results showed the dissipated energy linearly grows with respect to the amount of volume removal from the workpiece. The ERM built from the experimental results under the same condition were then utilized to estimate the turning performance under different experimental conditions. As a result, similar trends of dissipated energy versus volume removal were found. Therefore, ERM can be utilized to estimate a reliable replacement time of cutting tool in tooling machines.
