Statistical Quality Control for Manufacturing Managers (Wiley Series in Engineering and Technology Management)

By William S. Messina

Provided in this book are the methods and tools for the manufacturing manager to improve quality, increase productivity and enhance the competitive position of the manufacturing line. The material is stimulating and at times controversial regarding the new methods it proposes concerning performance appraisals, operation certification, line qualification, vendor certification and just-in-time manufacturing. The organization of this book takes the reader logically from the basics of statistics through the fundamentals of statistical quality control to the manufacturing applications and accompanying manufacturing strategies of statistical quality control (SQC). This book is the first written for manufacturing management and examples throughout the book demonstrate how the manufacturing manager can successfully implement SQC onto the manufacturing line, and real- life examples described serve to show the manufacturing situations managers are likely to find in their own line.
