Statistical quality control (SQC)
The Statistical Quality Control (SQC) feature is extremely useful during various types of process filling operations when
it is desired to monitor and control the process to eliminate under and over filling. Provisions are made in the balance
to accommodate the weight of various packaging methods. During operation, parameters of the packaged product
are set into the balance such as packaging weight, acceptable weight limits and non-acceptable weight limits of the
product. These weight limits are identified as +Tl, +T2, NOMINAL and -TI, -T2. As samples are weighed and stored in
the balance, a trend analysis is developed and displayed on the balance. Up to 25 samples in a batch with up to ten
batches are visible on a trend screen for quality control purposes. Each batch of samples is shown on the display
which indicates the maximum/minimum standard deviation and mean values for each batch. An on going examina-
tion of the relative deviation of the samples along with other statistical data can be viewed and is stored. By observing
the results of the TREND ANALYSIS screen, you can effectively monitor the filling process operation. Setup parameters
can be stored in the library and up to 5 products with statistical history can be stored in memory. All SQC information
can be printed.
