Understanding Variation and Statistical Process Control: Process Variation and Statistical Process Control (SPC)

This video, published by the Nanotechnology Applications and Career Knowledge Support (NACK) Center at Pennsylvania State University, focuses on process variation and statistical process control. During the lecture, Lou Johnson from Pennsylvania State University discusses the differences between normal and special cause variation, control limits and how they differ from specification limits, and individual charts, including calculating individual charts and creating them from historical data. Building on the discussion of individuals charts, Johnson covers the application of the eight Nelson Rules for determining out-of-control signals from a control chart, creating an X bar and R chart using data subgroups, and the advantages of creating a control chart with subgroup data.

The video runs 58:26 minutes in length. Presentation slides and an audio version of the webinar are also included.
