Statistical Process Control DeMYSTiFieD clearly defines the application and interpretation of SPC—a key component of Six Sigma, Quality Engineering, and Quality Assurance practices—within a cross section of industries. Various sampling methods applied in a variety of applications are discussed, including continuous, piece-part, service, and short run processes. The book uses Minitab, Excel and other software to demonstrate application of problem-solving and statistical techniques. You will learn how to solve complicated problems that are generally not addressed in introductory guides. High-level concepts are put it into practical context for ease of understanding.
