Robust Tukey‐CUSUM Control Chart for Process Monitoring

In real world scenarios, we continuously inspect the performing behavior of different features of processes. A change in the process parameters may affect the product quality and therefore needs a timely identification. For this purpose we have designed new memory structure based on Tukey control chart (TCC) under cumulative sum (CUSUM) setup. The proposed chart, namely Tukey‐CUSUM, combines the feature of TCC with CUSUM design for improved detection of shifts for normal and non‐normal data. The performance of the study proposal is evaluated through different measures based on run length including ARL, EQL, PCI and RARL. We have observed that the proposed Tukey‐CUSUM design is quite robust and efficient, especially using asymmetrical decision intervals for different process models. An application example is also provided to illustrate the study proposal. Moreover, sample selection is always of great concern for practitioners so we have included a brief description of the steps for sample selection with reference to process monitoring.
