Generation

# Statistical Process Control (SPC) Statistical Process Control is a method of quality control that uses statistical techniques to monitor and control a process, ensuring it operates at its full potential. SPC helps distinguish between common cause variation (inherent to the process) and special cause variation (due to specific circumstances), allowing operators to identify when corrective action is needed. The approach involves tracking process measurements over time using control charts to detect unusual patterns or trends. **Key Formula - Control Limits:** **Upper Control Limit (UCL) = μ + 3σ** **Lower Control Limit (LCL) = μ - 3σ** where μ is the process mean and σ is the process standard deviation (the "3" represents three standard deviations, covering 99.73% of normal variation).
