From the x̄ chart, we can conclude that the process is out of control based on themeasurements of the 12th and 15th samples. Out of 24 samples, we have 2 samples fallingoutside the3σ limitsoraprobabilityof8.3%.Weknow that for thenormaldistribution, theprobabilitythatapointwillfalloutsidethe3σlimitsis0.27%.Sothisoccurrenceisveryunusualandtheprocessneedstobeevaluated.NotethattheRchartdoesnotrevealanyirregularitiesintheprocess.ButthechartwouldstillbeusefulifweweretoapplytheWesternElectricrules(seeProblem3)heretogiveawarningsignalofaprocesslikelytogooutofcontrol.

Problem3.OutofControlDetection[AdaptedfromDouglasMontgomery’s‘IntroductiontoStatisticalControl’]TheWesternElectricHandbook(1956)suggestsasetofdecisionrulesfordetectingnonrandompatternsoncontrolcharts.Specifically,itsuggestsconcludingthattheprocessisoutofcontrolifeither:
1. Onepointplotsoutsidethethree-sigmacontrollimits,or2. Twooutofthreeconsecutivepointsplotbeyondthetwo-sigmawarninglimits,or3. Fouroutoffiveconsecutivepointsplotatadistanceofone-sigmaorbeyondfrom
