Monitoring Capability Indices using Run Rules
When doing a capability analysis it is recommended to first check that the process is stable, e.g., by using control charts. However, there are occasions when a process cannot be stabilized, but is nevertheless capable. Then the classical control charts fail to eciently monitor the process position and variability. The approach we suggest in this paper overcome this problem and solve it by proposing a new strategy, where capability indices are monitored in place of the classical sample statistics like the mean, median, standard deviation or range. The proposed procedure uses the family of capability indices proposed by V¨annman combined with one-sided 2-outof-3 and 3-out-of-4 Run Rules strategies. The experimental results presented in this paper demonstrate how the new proposed approach eciently monitors capable processes by detecting decrease or increase of capability level.
