Demings 14 Points
TABLE 36.1 1. Create constancy of purpose toward improvement of product and service. 2. Adopt the new philosophy. 3. Cease dependence on mass inspection to achieve quality. 4. End the practice of awarding business on the basis of price tag. 5. Improve constantly and forever the system of production and service, to improve quality and productivity, and thus constantly decrease cost. 6. Institute training on the job. 7. Institute leadership (as opposed to supervision). 8. Drive out fear so that everyone can work effectively. 9. Break down barriers between departments. 10. Eliminate slogans, exhortations and targets for zero defects and new levels of productivity 11. Eliminate quotas and management by numbers, numerical goals. Substitute leadership. 12. Remove barriers that rob the hourly worker of pride of workmanship. 13. Institute a vigorous program of education and self-improvement. 14. Put everybody in the company to work to accomplish the transformation

Robust Design
Figure 36.1 A simple example of robust design. (a) Location of two mounting holes on a sheet-metal bracket, where the deviation of the top surface of the bracket from being perfectly horizontal is . (b) New location holes, whereby the deviation of the top surface of the bracket from being perfectly horizontal is reduced to /2.

Figure 36.3 (a) A histogram of the number of shafts measured and their respective diameters. This type of curve is called frequency distribution. (b) A Normal distribution curve indicating areas within each range of standard deviation. Note: the greater the range, the higher the percentage of parts that fall within it.

Figure 36.5 Control charts used in statistical quality control. The process shown is in statistical control because all points fall within the lower and upper control limits. In this illustration sample size is five and the number of samples is 15.

Control Charts
Figure 36.6 Control charts. (a) Process begins to become out of control because of such factors as tool wear (drift). The tool is changed and the process is then in statistical control. (b) Process parameters are not set properly; thus all parts are around the upper control limit (shift in mean). (c) Process becomes out of control because of factors such as a change in the properties of the incoming material (shift in mean).

Acceptance Sampling
Figure 36.8 A typical operatingcharacteristics curve used in acceptance sampling. The higher the percentage of defective parts, the lower the probability of acceptance by the consumer. There are several methods of obtaining these curves.

Figure 36.10 Schematic illustration of magnetic-particle inspection of a part with a defect in it. Cracks that are in a direction parallel to the magnetic field, such as in A, would not be detected, whereas the others shown would. Cracks F, G, and H are the easiest to detect.
