Abstract :

<p>A measurement control systems ensures that measuring equipment and measurement processes are fit for their intended use and its important in achieving products quality objective. Process capability indices are intended to provide a single number assessment of the consistency of a manufacturing process relative to the engineering specification limits on quality characteristics. In this paper, an attempt has been made to highlight the methodology of statistical tolerance limits and its applicability for estimating the process capability. A case study conducted at Kiran Machine Tool Jalgaon. The control valve cylinder head OP-20 affected by various cutting parameters such as speed of machine; feed rate and depth of cut etc. The process for normal conditions are in statistical control but there is a scope for optimization of process costs by improving the, capability indices (nearly equal to 1.67). As process capability indices improve, it gives the direct effect on the production rate and less scrap. Enhancement of Process Costs Through Process Capability Measurement. Process Capability measurement is an inseparable part for the success of an organization.</p>
