Question
Define chance cause
Advertisements
Solution
These are small variations which are natural and inherent in the manufacturing process.
The variation occurring due to these causes is beyond the human control and cannot be prevented or eliminated under any circumstances
The minor causes which do not affect the quality of the products to an extent are called as Chance causes or Random causes.
For example Rain, floods, power cuts, etc.

Ten samples each of size five are drawn at regular intervals from a manufacturing process. The sample means `(bar"X")` and their ranges (R) are given below:
| Sample number | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
| `bar"X"` | 49 | 45 | 48 | 53 | 39 | 47 | 46 | 39 | 51 | 45 |
| R | 7 | 5 | 7 | 9 | 5 | 8 | 8 | 6 | 7 | 6 |
Calculate the control limits in respect of `bar"X"` chart. (Given A2 = 0.58, D3 = 0 and D4 = 2.115) Comment on the state of control
Construct `bar"X"` and R charts for the following data:
| Sample Number | Observations | ||
| 1 | 32 | 36 | 42 |
| 2 | 28 | 32 | 40 |
| 3 | 39 | 52 | 28 |
| 4 | 50 | 42 | 31 |
| 5 | 42 | 45 | 34 |
| 6 | 50 | 29 | 21 |
| 7 | 44 | 52 | 35 |
| 8 | 22 | 35 | 44 |
(Given for n = 3, A2 = 1.023, D3 = 0 and D4 = 2.574)
The following data show the values of sample means and the ranges for ten samples of size 4 each. Construct the control chart for mean and range chart and determine whether the process is in control.
| Sample Number | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
| `bar"X"` | 29 | 26 | 37 | 34 | 14 | 45 | 39 | 20 | 34 | 23 |
| R | 39 | 10 | 39 | 17 | 12 | 20 | 05 | 21 | 23 | 15 |
