Abstract
Manufactured products that are supposed to be identical will in fact vary, and it is very important to understand this variability; such an understanding can lead to
-
reduction in the number of items to be scrapped,
-
better adaptation of the machines to the production programme,
-
better appreciation of the problems of the production processes in the production planning office and
-
better use of the control charts.
