JMP Software: Process Control Design Using SPC

Duration: 2.0 days CEUs: 1.2
(This course is not currently scheduled.)

This outline is provisional and subject to change.

This course covers the basic concepts and methodologies associated with designing closed loop process controls using statistical process control for variables and attributes data.

Learn how to

select the correct controls for a process
create a process control system
determine the capability of a process
develop a contol implementation strategy.

Who should attend

Employees who actively work on any aspect of process development and controls associated with the measurement of continuous variables. This course is required for process engineers, QA engineers, and their managers.
