Forecasting manufacturing variation using historical process capability data : applications for random assembly, selective assembly, and serial processing
… assume. Variation exists because no production process is perfect. Often times, controlling this variation is attempted during production when substantial effort and resources, e.g., time, money, and manpower, are required. The effort and resources could be reduced if the manufacturing variation …
