近年來,許多調適性管制圖都只探討單一製程,然而現今存在許多相依製程的問題.因此本論文提出兩相依製程之調適性管制圖,並以ATS測量管制圖的績效.本論文所提出的變動抽樣間隔時間之調適性管制圖對於偵測製程中幅度及小幅度的偏移有良好的績效.此外,本論文所提出的變動抽樣樣本大小及變動抽樣間隔時間之調適性管制圖對於偵測製程極小幅度的偏移有良好的績效. / In recent years, many research papers about adaptive control charts all consider a single process step. However, there are many multiple process steps in industry process. In this article, we propose adaptive control charts to monitor two dependent process steps, and their average time to signal (ATS) is calculated by Markov chain approach to measure the performance of these proposed control charts. It has been shown that the performance of the adaptive sampling interval (ASI) control charts in detecting small and moderate shifts in process means is better than the fixed sampling interval control charts, especially for small shifts, and the proposed adaptive sample size and sampling interval (ASSI) control charts have better performance in detecting very small shifts in process means than the fixed sample size and sampling interval control charts and the adaptive sample size control charts.

由近期的研究中發現變動所有參數的管制圖在偵測小幅度偏移時的速度比起傳統的舒華特管制圖來的快，許多文獻也討論到利用調適性管制技術同時監控製程的平均數和變異數。而在這份研究中，為了改善現有管制圖的偵測效率，依序提出了U-V管制圖以及Max-M管制圖來偵測單一製程與兩相依製程的平均數和變異數。採用AATS及ANOS來衡量管制圖的偵測績效，並利用馬可夫鏈推導計算得之。透過兩階段的範例來介紹所提出的管制圖的應用方法並將VP U-V管制圖、VP Max-M管制圖與FP Z(X-bar)-Z(Sx^2)管制圖加以比較。從所研究的數值分析中發現VP Max-M管制圖比另兩種管制圖的表現來的好，再加上只需要單一管制圖在使用上對工程師來說也較為簡便，因此建議Max-M管制圖値得在實務上被使用。 / Recent studies have shown that the variable parameters (VP) charts detect small process shifts faster than the traditional Shewhart charts. There have been many papers discussed adaptive control schemes to monitor process mean and variance simultaneously. In the study, to improve the efficiency and performance of the existing control charts, the U-V control charts and Max-M control charts are respectively proposed to monitor the process mean and variance for a single process and two dependent process steps. The performance of the proposed control charts is measured by using adjusted average time to signal (AATS) and average number of observations to signal (ANOS). The calculation of AATS and ANOS is derived by Markov chain approach. The application of the proposed control charts is illustrated by a numerical example for two dependent process steps, and the performance of VP U-V control charts, VP Max-M control charts and FP Z(X-bar)-Z(Sx^2) control charts is compared. From the results of data analyses, it shows that the VP Max-M control charts have better performance than VP U-V control charts and FP Z(X-bar)-Z(Sx^2) control charts. Furthermore, using a single chart to monitor a process is easier than using two charts for engineers. Hence, Max-M control charts are recommended in real industrial process.

近年來有許多研究發現，適應性管制圖在偵測製程或產品幅度偏移時的速度比傳統的舒華特管制圖來的快，許多文獻也討論到利用適應性管制技術同時監控製程的平均數和變異數。隨著科技的發達，許多產品在製造上更加精密，現今普遍使用的固定參數管制圖並無法有效率的偵測出製程失控，導致巨大的成本損失。為了改善現有管制圖的偵測效率與有效控制製程失控下的損失，我們提出了三種適應性加權損失管制圖，包括變動抽樣間隔(VSI)、變動樣本數與抽樣間隔(VSI)、變動管制參數(VP)來偵測單一製程與兩相依製程的平均數和變異數。採用製程發生變動後到管制圖偵測出異常訊息所需的平均時間(AATS)與所需的總觀測數(ANOS)來衡量管制圖的偵測績效，並利用馬可夫鏈推導計算得之。從數值分析中發現，適應性加權損失管制圖在「偵測小偏移幅度時的偵測效率」與「成本的控制」明顯比傳統管制圖表現的更好，再加上每一個製程僅需採用單一管制圖，對使用者也較為簡便並且容易理解，因此適應性加權損失管制圖在實務上是值得被推薦使用的。 / Recent research has shown that control charts with adaptive features detect process shifts faster than traditional Shewhart charts. In this article, we propose three kinds of adaptive weighted loss (WL) control charts, variable sampling intervals (VSI) WL control charts , variable sample sizes and sampling intervals (VSSI) WL control charts and variable parameters (VP) WL control charts, to monitor the target and variance on a single process step and two dependent process steps simultaneously. These adaptive WL control charts may effectively distinguish which process step is out-of-control. We use the Markov chain approach to calculate the adjusted average time to signal (AATS) and average number of observations to signal (ANOS) in order to measure the performance of the proposed control charts. From the numerical examples and data analyses, we find the adaptive WL control charts have better detection abilities and performance than fixed parameters (FP) WL control charts and FP Z(X-bar)-Z(Sx^2) and Z(e-bar)-Z(Se^2) control charts. We also proposed the optimal adaptive WL control charts using an optimization technique to minimize AATS when users cannot specify the values of the variable parameters. In addition, we discuss the impact of misusing weighted loss of outgoing quality control chart. In conclusion, using a single chart to monitor a process is inherently easier than using two charts. The WL control charts are easy to understand for the users, and have better performance and detection abilities than the other charts, thus, we recommend the use of WL control charts in the real industrial process.
