6 hr Virtual Seminar Statistics for Process Control Training (October 13, 2022) - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "6 hr Virtual Seminar Statistics for Process Control Training" training has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This 6-hour virtual seminar includes a presentation of the steps and techniques used to quantify variability in manufacturing processes, and to assure quality products.

The concepts and information presented will be mainly concerned with statistical process control: obtaining monitoring information (data) that is objective, unbiased, and useful for decision making. An emphasis will be placed on the set-up and use of control charts.

The objective of the seminar is to provide information that can be used immediately by personnel involved in production operations, and by supervisors and management in decision-making. Although the presentation involves the use of statistical techniques, presentation of statistical theory will be limited to only what is needed by the attendees to understand and implement processes and monitoring tools within the statistical framework.

Presented examples will include an emphasis on the manufacturing processes and quality assurance needs of products in the medical device and pharmaceutical industries.

Process control is constantly evolving. Therefore, historical concepts, current trends, and regulatory requirements will be discussed. The presentation of statistical charts and analyses, graphical techniques for planning, troubleshooting, and problem-solving will also be presented.

Why Should You Attend

All processes exhibit intrinsic variation. However, sometimes the variation is excessive and this hinders the ability to achieve reliable measurements and desired results. Statistical process control (SPC) allows us to control the functions of our processes (input) by providing tangible monitoring tools.

Process control is important for a company's reputation. A good system of processing and checks reduces costs associated with production waste and re-work due to defects, and allows a company to deliver products that are high in quality. Many industries are also required to have a good process management system in place to achieve compliance with regulatory authorities.

This seminar will provide attendees with the statistical tools necessary to monitor processes to ensure the quality of manufactured products. Ms. Eisenbeisz will make use of Minitab software in her presentation.
