- Abstract
In the statistical process control, the most useful tool to monitor the manufacturing processes in the industries is the control chart. Quality practitioners always desire the charting structure that identifies sustainable changes in the monitoring processes. The sensitivity of the control chart is improved when additional correlated auxiliary information about the study variable is introduced. The regression estimate in the form of auxiliary and supporting variables presents an unbiased and efficient statistic of the mean of the process variable. In this study, auxiliary information‐based moving average (AB‐MA) control chart is designed for efficient monitoring of shifts in the process location parameter. The performance of the AB‐MA control chart is evaluated and compared with existing charts using average run length and other run length characteristics. The comparison reveals that the AB‐MA control chart outperforms the competitors in detecting the small and medium changes in the process location parameter. The application of the proposal is also provided to implement it in real situation.
