Description
SPC stands for “Statistical Process Control,” a method that has gained significant traction since the mid-1980s, particularly within the American automotive sector. In French, this technique is referred to as “Contrôle Statistique des Processus” (SPM). The primary aim of SPC is to minimize scrap and rework rates through effective quality control of ongoing production, coupled with sampling methods, thereby anticipating issues related to non-quality. Utilizing SPC software allows for the real-time monitoring of processes and sends alerts if control limits are breached. © Infodream. Among the notifications generated are warnings about overruns of control limits, which are more stringent than tolerance limits, as well as indications of trends that suggest process degradation. This proactive approach enables manufacturers to address potential quality issues before producing defective parts. Importantly, this technique is versatile and can be applied to various manufacturing processes, whether producing in small batches or large volumes, and regardless of whether 100% inspection or sampling is employed. Ultimately, SPC contributes to maintaining high-quality standards in production.
