The Quality Loss Function (QLF)1. We cannot reduce cost without affecting quality.2. We can improve quality without increasing cost.3. We can reduce cost by improving quality.4. We can reduce cost by reducing variation. When

we do so, performance and quality will automatically improve.

1. System Design Stage – customer and marketing knowledge

2. Parameter Stage - how the product should perform against defined parameters

3. Tolerance design stage - finding the balance between manufacturing cost and loss

maintaining of the quality of products and services

Benefits of Statistical Quality Control It provides a means of detecting error at

inspection. It leads to more uniform quality of

production. It improves the relationship with the

customer. It reduces inspection costs.  It reduces the number of rejects and saves

the cost of material. 

Benefits of Statistical Quality Control It provides a basis for attainable specifications.  It points out the bottlenecks and trouble spots.  It provides a means of determining the capability of

the manufacturing process. It promotes the understanding and appreciation of

quality control.
