Filler 1 head 6 has a problem (high) - boxplot Filler 2 is very consistent Filler 1 is non-normal Even if you take out the Filler #6 and run capability analysis, the variance is still to great. So, the first thing to do is move the mean by fixing head #6 then, work on overall variance. More about Boxplots Median Third Quartile (Q3) First Quartile (Q1) * Outlier The highest point of the top whisker is the smaller of: Q3 + 1.5(Q3-Q1) The largest value in the data set The lowest point of the bottom whisker is the larger of: Q1 - 1.5(Q3-Q1) The smallest value in the data set * Outliers (designated by the Asterisk) are plotted for any points outside the calculated upper or lower value Dialog Box Entry Tips: When a dialog box is opened, variables can be entered in a number of different ways: Double-click on the entry Highlight the entry and choose ‘Select’ Type in the number of the column containing the data (i.e., C1) Highlight the column Double-click or choose “Select” to enter the selection into the dialog box Useful Tools: Pareto Charts in Minitab Minitab can generate Pareto charts for you! All you need is defect data in a column, and Minitab will graphically present frequency of defects, by category, in descending order (from most defects to fewest defects). Let’s Try It! Open filename “AMUSE” the path is: L:\minitab\training\minitab\session1\amuse.mtw Listed in column C1 of the data sheet are all of the defects noted by customers who attended a particular amusement park. There are 421 entries in this column, unsorted (entered directly from surveys). To create a Pareto chart: StatQuality toolsPareto chart Fill in the dialog box as shown below: (Double-click on the column containing the defect list - C1) The Pareto of defects is shown below: “Wait Time” is the biggest issue - Start Here! Useful Tools: Cause Effect (‘Fishbone’) Diagrams in Minitab Minitab can generate a Cause and Effect Diagram, AS LONG AS THE DATA IN THE DATA SHEET IS A
