Shewhart control charts are suitable for stable but repetitive production processes used for the subsequent identification of random deviations while indicating breached quality limits. They provide information on process variability and, at the same time, make it possible to obtain information on the reliability of monitored processes. The objective of this paper is to assess the quality characteristics of plastic mouldings for the needs of the automotive industry with the application of the control charts method, specifically Shewhart control charts. The Shewhart control charts were applied to evaluate the quality characteristics, or, more specifically, to evaluate the measured width and length of the produced plastic mouldings by statistical analysis. Statistical analyses show that the set parameters are not met in the first two days of the test series. An improvement in the process is observed on the last day of the test series. The process is well set, as confirmed by our verification of the stability of the process. An important condition for setting the control charts is to observe the correct chronological arrangement and regular acquisition of measured values. Solving tasks in the future must be oriented to an evaluation of the capability of the production process of the monitored product. The proposal for future research will be oriented toward the evaluation of this capability via process capability indices that derive continuous data by using the classical method. |
