Monitoring and Interpretation of Process Variability Generated from the Integration of the Multivariate Cumulative Sum Control Chart and Artificial Intelligence

Variability in manufacturing processes must be properly monitored and controlled to avoid incurring quality problems; otherwise, the probability of manufacturing defective products increases, and, consequently, production costs rise. This paper presents the development of a methodology to locate the...

description Variability in manufacturing processes must be properly monitored and controlled to avoid incurring quality problems; otherwise, the probability of manufacturing defective products increases, and, consequently, production costs rise. This paper presents the development of a methodology to locate the source(s) of variation in the manufacturing process in case of a statistical deviation so that the user can quickly take corrective actions to eliminate the source of variation, thus avoiding the manufacture of out-of-specification products. The methodology integrates the multivariate cumulative sum control chart and the multilayer perceptron artificial neural network for the detection and interpretation of the source(s) of variation generated in the manufacturing processes. A case study was carried out with a printed circuit board manufacturing process, and it was possible to classify the origin of the variation with a sensitivity of 92.41% and specificity of 91.16%. The results demonstrate the viability of the proposed methodology to monitor and interpret the source of statistical variation present in production systems.
