Example 1 Suppose a company produces 1000 engines per year and 5 engines fail on average per year.The failures can be eliminated by a 100%inspection program.If it costs $10,000 to replace an engine but $100 to inspect each one,then the costs are: ■Inspect:1000*$100=$100,000 ■Replace:5*$10,000=$50,000 Obviously,it is cheaper not to inspect.If 10 or more engines fail, then the inspection program is cheaper. Therefore,it is very important for the company to maintain good statistical data on its manufacturing process. Shanghai Jiao Tong University 4

Tolerances Tolerances refer to how close a dimension or a surface finish of a manufactured part is to the desired or "nominal"dimension. The explicit specification of tolerances is critical for determining the manufacturing process(es)required to make a part and therefore its final cost. If the surface finish is not important,it may be possible to use cheaper or faster process than if the surface finish is critical. Shanghai Jiao Tong University 5

Reliability Reliability is the likelihood that an object will perform its function or a process will yield satisfactory results. Often,the reliability of system must be predicted from an estimate of the reliability of its components. Shanghai Jiao Tong University 6

Statistical Process Control Statistical Process Control is used to monitor processes in a way such that normal variability of the operation is accounted for, but long term degradation is observed. The process is sampled at given intervals and the statistics of the samples compared.The cost of the inspection must be balanced versus the dangers of either missing a change in the process or misinterpreting a statistical fluctuation for a change in the process.

Regression Regression allows us to determine a relationship between two or more variables,even when there is uncertainly in the measurements and the relationship may not be immediately obvious. We will use regression to establish the Taylor's Tool Life Equation. Shanghai Jiao Tong University 8

Terminology If the parameters of a model of a system or a process are known,given,or established from past history,then we have a probability problem and we can deduce the behavior of the system from the model.However,if the parameters are unknown and have to be estimated from the available data,then we have a statistical problem.
