Abstract The paper presents an analysis of SPC (Statistical Process Control) procedures usability in foundry engineering. The authors pay particular attention to the processes complexity and necessity of correct preparation of data acquisition procedures. Integration of SPC systems with existing IT solutions in area of aiding and assistance during the manufacturing process is important. For each particular foundry, methodology of selective SPC application needs to prepare for supervision and control of stability of manufacturing conditions, regarding specificity of data in particular “branches” of foundry production (Sands, Pouring, Metallurgy, Quality).

SPC (Statistical Process Control) is one of the Lean Manufacturing techniques, but especially Six Sigma, being a method of improving the quality of the manufacturing process, which allows the identification of errors before their production, with the help of which a process can be supervised and when needed, it is possible to carry out an intervention of regulation, respectively of correction of the process, before being nonconformities. The paper presents a study regarding the use of SPC at a company in the automotive field in order to improve the quality of the manufacturing process for a knuckle. Thus, a number of 25 samples were taken, each sample containing a number of 5 pieces. After sampling, a series of techniques and statistical data were used, respectively diagrams and control sheets, which allowed the determination of the process capability by using MiniTab software.

An undergraduate laboratory has recently been developed to expose junior mechanical engineering students to the concept, components and operation of data acquisition boards, PC-based data acquisition, analysis and control. The laboratory, which has been taught during the last two fall semesters, consists of the compression testing of golf ball cores using a Riehle compression tester, and analysis of the collected data using digital signal processing techniques and statistical process control (SPC). Student feedback to date suggests the labs have had a positive impact on student learning and underline the importance of including the topic of PC-based data acquisition and analysis in an undergraduate engineering curriculum.

Metro construction is normally carried out in complex engineering geological environment, so it can generate various risk events. In the process of metro construction, a scientific risk dynamic analysis is indispensable to reduce and control risks. In order to analyze the risk in metro construction more scientifically and reasonably, in this study, a new risk dynamic analysis method for metro construction is proposed using statistical process control. The method can analyse the risk level according to the process’s capacity index and identify the characteristics of risk variation according to the statistical control chart. The risk level and the characteristic of risks may vary with dynamical updating of monitoring data, so the conclusion of risk evaluation for a time interval can be drawn and corresponding safety measures can be ascertained. The method ushers statistical process control, so the random factors in risk evolution can be considered fully. Then, the method is applied to the risk analysis of shield construction under the Beijing-Tianjin intercity railway in Beijing Metro Line 8, a typical risk problem in the traffic construction. The variation of the risk level and the characteristic of risks can be evaluated reasonably because the dynamical randomness is considered. Moreover, whether risk control measures should be taken and what the effective measures are can be ascertained explicitly.

In this study, the authors propose an approach for detecting R-wave of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. A statistical process control chart is successfully integrated with wavelet transformation (WT) to detect R-wave locations. This chart is a graphical display of the quality characteristic measured or computed from samples versus the sample number or time from the production line in a factory. This research performed WT at the signal preprocessing stage; the change points and control limits are then determined for each segment and the R-wave location is rechecked by spreading the points at the decision stage. The proposed procedures determine the change points and control limits for each segment. This method can be used to eliminate high-frequency noise, baseline shifts and artifacts from ECG signals, and R-waves can be effectively detected. In addition, there is flexibility in parameter value selection and robustness over wider noise ranges for the proposed QRS detection method.

RESUMO - A colheita, sendo uma das principais etapas no processo produtivo, precisa manter as perdas dentro de um controle aceitável para que seja possível atingir o máximo nível de qualidade e produtividade. No presente estudo, objetivou-se avaliar as perdas quantitativas durante a colheita mecanizada do sorgo forrageiro por meio do controle estatístico de processo (CEP). O experimento foi arranjado em delineamento inteiramente casualizado (DIC), em que foi realizada a análise de variância para a verificação do efeito significativo da declividade e da velocidade operacional nas perdas, e, quando significativos, foi submetida ao teste de comparação de médias de Tukey a 5% de significância. Cartas sequenciais e cartas de controle para valores individuais e de amplitude móveis foram utilizadas como ferramentas de controle estatístico de processo para verificar o efeito da velocidade operacional nas perdas. Com base nos resultados obtidos é possível indicar que a faixa de velocidade operacional de 4 a 5 km h-1 apresentou a menor variação dos dados, não apresentando nenhum ponto fora do limite de controle, o que lhe conferiu a condição de faixa ideal para colheita. Com base na análise estatística houve maiores perdas no transporte à medida que se aumenta a faixa de declividade do terreno.Palavras-chave: colheita mecanizada, forragicultura, carta de controle, velocidade operacional. STATISTICAL PROCESS CONTROL (SPC) APPLIED IN THE MECHANIZED HARVEST OF SORGHUM  ABSTRACT - Harvesting is one of the main steps in the production process and it is necessary to keep the losses under control in order to reach the maximum level of quality and productivity. The present study aimed to evaluate the quantitative losses during the mechanized harvesting of forage sorghum using the statistical process control (SPC). The experiment was arranged in a completely randomized design (DIC), and analysis of variance was performed to verify the significant effect of declivity and operational velocity on losses, and the significant was submitted to the Tukey test at 5% significance. Sequential charts and control charts for individual and mobile amplitude values, composed of upper and lower control and average limits, were used as statistical process control tools to verify the effect of operational speed on losses. Based on the results obtained it is possible to indicate that the operational velocity range from 4 to 5 km h-1 presented the lowest variation of data, presenting no point outside of the control limit, being the ideal range for harvest. The statistical analysis showed higher losses in transportation as the slope of the terrain increased.Keywords: Mechanized harvesting, forage farming, control charts, operational speeds.

For the high and strict quality requirement in the manufacturing process of nuclear power parts, this paper is based on the combination of Statistical Process Control technology and the ERP quality management and control the production quality based on the control chart. PowerBuilder 9.0 and SQL Server2000 were used to design and develop the system while PowerBuilder 9.0 as front-end development tool and SQL Server2000 as back-end DBMS respectively. Firstly, collect the quality data of the production process (some important processes). Then, analysis these data and form control chart. Real-time monitor production process by the control charting to ensure the process is stability. Organic combination of SPC and ERP to improve and control the quality, not only enrich the analytical data of SPC, but also make up the ERP data to analysis and control quality data.
