Abstract
Control chart is one of the basic tools of statistical quality control and monitoring during production of production and service processes. The cost of quality in the classical approach to control chart design depends on whether the quality characteristic is inside or outside the control range. Since the integration of the loss function approach into in-production monitoring activities such as control charts, which is derived from Taguchi's concept of social quality loss, in which the cost of quality depends on the amount of deviation of the quality characteristic from the target value, is a more comprehensive evaluation process. It is better guided in the management strategy. This paper combines the Taguchi loss function and the economic design of the X نمودار control chart. In addition, since the output data of the process may not follow the normal distribution or the assumptions of the central limit theorem may not be true of it, it is necessary to study the integrated model in these situations, in addition to the normal distribution mode. In this regard, the economic design parameters of the integrated model will be compared in the presence of normal and abnormal data, in which, due to the extent of incremental failure rate in production systems, from non-uniform sampling design for sample inspection and Weibull shock model for failure mechanism. The process is used.
