MOD003629 Engineering Quality Management - Anglia Ruskin University

PART A

Students are required to construct two control charts i.e., Shewart and CUSUM based on the data provided in the table below. There are 10 batches in total with 5 made on one day and the remaining 5 made on a different day.

	1          2		3	4	5	6	7	8          9          10
1	10.94	10.98	10.95	10.99	10.98	11.23	11.88	11.87	11.87	11.92
2	10.98	10.97	10.93	11.01	11.01	11.8	11.91	11.85	11.83	11.87
3	11.03	10.99	10.95	10.89	11	11.71	11.9	11.9	11.93	11.85
4	10.94	11.22	10.9	11.02	10.84	11.82	11.92	11	11.9	11.89
5	11.02	10.96   10.99		10.97	10.94	11.83	11.91	11.9	11.91	11.81

The report should contain responses to the following:

(i) Shewart and CUSUM control charts Suitability and discussion of control chart
(ii) findings
(iii) of quality assurance with
(iii) literature

PART B

Discuss how capability studies fit into quality management systems and quality assurance with due reference to quality theories and relevant standards. Discussion must include the significance of the purchase order and capability studies of the new and existing machines for the manufacture of a product of your choice. It is important to clearly define a product and explain the usage of capability studies to enhance quality and production.

Intended learning outcomes for the assessment

This summative assignment will provide students the opportunity to gain knowledge and experience on:
• Constructing different control charts and analysing them.
• Undertaking capability studies based on control chart findings.
• Understanding the importance of a purchase order for the manufacture of a specific product.
• Comprehend the significance of quality standards and theories to make sound decisions.
