Depending on types of yarn and technology used, there are numerous process points and quality characterisics to be controlled by sampling process control in the textile yarn industry. In all of these control stages, sampling interval may change drastically, say, from the quarter hour to 10,000 h. Therefore, determining optimum sampling interval in all process stages of yarn spinning is a very important issue from the points of production cost and quality of yarn. This article presents how to solve this issue by means of Duncan's economic and statistical X control chart design model. The data needed for Duncan's model, such as cost and time, have been provided by an integrated textile plant.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
