Quality control is intended to maintain and improve quality and maintain the safety of the products produced. This study uses Statistical Process Control by using several tools such as check sheets, control charts and fishbone diagrams to determine the cause of the decline in quality in tea with the aim that the next process can minimize the level of product quality decline. This study aims to determine the dominant cause of the decline in tea quality when viewed from the water content in tea. Based on the results of the study, it can be seen that the dominant cause of the decline in tea quality is the highwater content of dry tea. This type of deterioration can be caused by human error and other factors such as machine condition, raw materials and process monitoring.

Quality is a benchmark to determine the level of good and bad of a product. The level of quality of a product will affect customer satisfaction, hence, to produce high quality products, it is necessary for a company to have a quality control process. Quality control is a process that aims to maintain the quality of products and services that have been promised to consumers. In this study, quality control is carried out in the sugar packaging process. Where in the sugar packaging process found the resulting product has a poor quality, defective and not in accordance with specifications. This study uses the Statistical Process Control (SPC) method which aims to determine the causes of defective products with the intention that the packaging process can further minimize the level of product defects. The SPC method is a statistical analysis technique with seven statistical tools or seven tools. Based on the results of the study it can be seen that the cause of product damage / defects in the product packaging process is caused by three types of damage namely damage due to conveyor (38.17%), damage due to machine pinched (35.82%), and damage due to loose seams (26,00%) This type of damage can be caused by human error and other factors such as engine condition, engine cleanliness and the monitoring process. Proposed improvements recommended for the company are to provide training to employees, make clear work instructions, conduct periodic maintenance for the machines used, supervise all work areas, and carry out quality control for every acceptance of raw materials.

Quality control and improvement at the process level is a vital activity for the achievement of defect-free products in various manufacturing processes. This study employs statistical process control (SPC) tools such as control charts and process capability ratio for quality control and improvement. The control charts employed are , R and the cumulative-sum (CUSUM). The process capability ratio used is the so called process capability index (PCI). These tools have been implemented with the aid of Minitab® statistical software. In this study, the manufacturing process of gelatin capsules is investigated in terms of quality of the capsules, which are produced and shipped for use by various drug companies. As a result of implementation of SPC tools, an expected reduction in the number of defective capsules by 29% relative to the stage before implementation was achieved.

Statistical process control is a technique employed to enhance the quality and productivity of processes and the distribution or marketing of its products. Sachet water is a product that has become popular and is being used as a replacement for lack of potable water. It is an alternative that is readily available, affordable but with questions about its purity, production and marketing processes. The objective of this study is to apply statistical control charts in monitoring the production, packaging and distribution or marketing processes of sachet water in Nigeria. This paper employed statistical quality control approach to monitor process stability in a Table Water manufacturing company. Quality control tools such as p-chart, u-chart, X-bar and R charts as well as process capability chart were use to observed field data obtained from the sachet water manufacturing company on important processes of sachet water production and marketing for 30 working days. This was done to check if the processes were in control or out of control and to verify the capability of the marketing process of the product meeting preset specifications. With this, the statistical control charts suitable for the processes were constructed using package “qcc” in R software version 3.6.1. The results from p-chart and u-chart showed that the production and packaging process of the product is not in control and hence the need for further investigations and corrective measures to prevent variability in the process and thus allowing improvement in the quality of the product. Also, the results from X-bar and R charts showed that the marking process was in statistical process control in respects of the product sales recorded by the four independent marketers, with no assignable cause of variation. It also revealed that, the product marketing process has low capability of successfully attending the preset specification limits in respect of the product sales and hence generating low profit for the company.

To this end, this work aimed to evaluate how cutting and loading systems affect sugarcane ratoon using statistical process control. The experiment was conducted in an agricultural area in Frutal, MG, in June 2014. Mechanical harvesting was conducted at a 1.1 m s-1(4.0 km h-1) average working speed and 1.50m spacing. The statistical design used was completely randomized, based on the concepts of quality control, in which the data were collected during harvesting time. The study treatments were as follows, basal cut, and mechanical sets A, B, C and D according to equipment gauge width. The stubble damage and unsettling indexes were the parameters used to determine the quality of the process under study. Set D with the widest gauge is the best option for mechanical harvesting, loading and transporting sugarcane since it has significantly lower sugarcane stubble damage and unsettling indices compared to sets A, B, and C.   Keywords: agricultural mechanization, control charts, mechanical harvest, stubble trampling, variability.   RESUMO: O corte mecânico e carregamento simultâneo da cana-de-açúcar pode atropelar a palha remanescente na área colhida, aumentando os índices de danos e abalos das socas que permanecem no solo após a colheita, o que, ao final, pode dificultar a rebrota da cana-de-açúcar. Para tanto, o objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar como os sistemas de corte e carregamento que afetam a soca de cana-de-açúcar por meio do controle estatístico do processo. O experimento foi conduzido em uma área agrícola em Frutal, MG, em junho de 2014. A colheita mecanizada foi realizada a uma velocidade média de trabalho de 1,1m s-1 (4,0 km h-1) e espaçamento de 1,50m. O delineamento estatístico utilizado foi inteiramente casualizado, em que os dados foram coletados na época da colheita. Os tratamentos estudados foram o corte basal e os conjuntos mecânicos A, B, C e D de acordo com a largura de bitola do equipamento. Dessa forma, conclui-se que o Conjunto D com a bitola mais larga é a melhor opção para colheita mecânica, carregamento e transporte da cana-de-açúcar, pois apresenta danos significativamente mais baixos à palha da cana-de-açúcar, além dos índices de abalos, quando comparados aos conjuntos A, B e C.   Palavras-chave: mecanização agrícola, cartas de controle, colheita mecanizada, pisoteio de soqueira, variabilidade.

The paper shows the relation among the number of small, medium and large companies in the leather and footwear industry in Croatia, as well as the relation among the number of their employees by means of the Spearman and Pearson correlation coefficient. The data were collected during 21 years. The warning zone and the risk zone were determined by means of the Statistical Process Control (SPC) for a certain number of small, medium and large companies in the leather and footwear industry in Croatia. Growth models, based on externalities, models based on research and development and the AK models were applied for the analysis of the obtained research results. The paper shows using the correlation coefficients that The relation between the number of large companies and their number of employees is the strongest, i.e. large companies have the best structured work places. The relation between the number of medium companies and the number of their employees is a bit weaker, while there is no relation in small companies. This is best described by growth models based on externalities, in which growth generates the increase in human capital, i.e. the growth of the level of knowledge and skills in the entire economy, but also deductively in companies on microeconomic level. These models also recognize the limit of accumulated knowledge after which growth may be expected. The absence of growth in small companies results from an insufficient level of human capital and failure to reach its limit level which could generate growth. According to Statistical Process Control (SPC), control charts, as well as regression models, it is clear that the most cost-effective investment is the investment into medium companies. The paper demonstrates the disadvantages in small, medium and large companies in the leather and footwear industry in Croatia. Small companies often emerge too quickly and disappear too easily owing to the employment of administrative staff instead of professional production staff. As the models emphasize, companies need to invest into their employees and employ good production staff. Investment and support to the medium companies not only strengthens the companies which have a well-arranged technological process and a good systematization of work places, but this also helps large companies, as there is a strong correlation between the number of medium and large companies.

Background:Pathology test turnaround times (TATs) are a limiting factor in patient flow through rheumatology services. Quality improvement (QI) methodologies such as Lean use tools including statistical process control (SPC) and process mapping to study the performance of the whole of a clinical pipeline, expose unnecessary complexity (non-value-adding activity), and streamline processes and staff roles.Objectives:Understand effects of changes made to CTD testing algorithm over last 12 years by measuring some of the effects on TATs. Model current processes and suggest changes to workflow to improve TAT.Methods:High-level flow diagrams of the current testing algorithm, and low-level process maps of analyser and staff processes were drawn.Activity and TATs (working days between report and booking date) for ANA, ENA, DNA and CCP tests were plotted as XmR control charts.Results:Finding 1: Largest referral laboratory does not currently operate a separate DNA monitoring workstream, resulting in unnecessary ANA and ENA testing (figure 1).Figure 1.Current testing strategy (left) and suggested improvement (right)Finding 2:Samples are handed off between 3 different lab benches, each of which may be staffed by a different staff member on a different day, and results processing involves handoff to a further 2 different staff members.Finding 3:ANA demand is close to capacity, ENA demand exceeds current capacity (table 1).Table 1.Demand for ANA, ENA and DNA tests, compared to capacityTestMedian Demand(tests/ day)Approx. Capacity(tests/ day)NotesANA74100Close to 80% recommended by the ILGsENA3836*Less capacity than demand!!DNA34100PlentyFinding 4:Stopping screening DNA requests on ANA result increased the number of DNA tests performed by about 10 samples per day (30%), but decreased turnaround time by a similar proportion (3.3 to 2.3 days, figure 2). It also reduced turnaround times of ANA and ENA tests.Figure 2.Control chart of average TAT of dsDNA antibodies by request dateConclusion:Typically for a QI project, the initially simple CTD testing pipeline has accumulated many changes made without consideration of whole system performance, and is now a struggle to run.Improvement ideas to be explored from this work include:Liaising with main referral lab to develop a DNA monitoring workstream to reduce unnecessary ANA and ENA testingReduce handoffs, sample journey around lab analysers, and staff hands-on time by:changing ANA test methodology to same as DNAcreating new staff roles (analyser operators to perform validation/ authorisation steps)Create more capacity for ENA testing by increasing the frequency of this test on the weekly rotaCreate more capacity for service expansion by running analysers at weekends (staff consultation required)Reduce demand on service by engaging and educating requestorsImprove TAT for DNA by:processing samples the day they are booked in, instead of 1 day laterauto-validating runs…using control charts to measure improvementDisclosure of Interests:None declared
