The Performance of Max-GWMA Control Chart in the Presence of Measurement Errors

Recently, simultaneous monitoring of process mean and variability has gained increasing attention. By departing from the accurate measurements assumption, this paper investigates the effect of gauge measurement errors on the performance of the maximum generally weighted moving average (Max-GWMA) chart for simultaneous monitoring of process mean and variability under an additive covariate model. Multiple measurements procedure is employed to compensate for the undesired impact of gauge inaccuracy on detection capability of the MaxGWMA chart. Simulation experiments in terms of average run length (ARL) are conducted to assess the power of the developed chart to detect different out-of-control scenarios. The results confirm that the gauge inaccuracy affects the sensitivity of the Max-GWMA chart. Moreover, the results show that taking multiple measurements per item adequately decreases the adverse effect of measurement errors. Finally, a real-life example is presented to demonstrate how measurement errors increases the false alarm rate of the Max-GWMA chart.

Integrated maintenance, inventory and quality engineering decisions for multi-product systems

It is essential for manufacturers to consider the interrelation among quality, inventory, and maintenance decisions to detect imperfect quality products, keep the production system in good operating condition, and manage quality and inventory costs. Hence, this paper aims to develop an integrated model of inventory planning, quality engineering, and maintenance scheduling in which the expected total cost per time unit is minimised by determining the sample size, sampling interval, control limit coefficient, along with production cycle time. In this regard, an imperfect multi-product manufacturing system is considered, in which the inventory shortage in satisfying the demand for each product type and the idle time during the production cycle are not allowed. It is assumed that the process starts in an in-control condition where most produced units are conforming. However, due to the occurrence of an assignable cause (AC), the process mean moves to an out-of-control condition in which a significant fraction of non-conforming units is produced. The efficiency of the proposed mathematical model is evaluated by a numerical example, and then the sensitivity of the proposed model to important inputs is analysed. Finally, a comparative study based on the Taguchi design approach is given to confirm the capability of the proposed model to achieve remarkable cost savings.
