I have a need ot control chart repair data time to complete each repair over time. Even Minitab's instructions of I-MR charting suggests you should not change the UCL and LCL. How do you continue to add data to Minitab without changing the parameters. I thought it does this automatically and is why we use the SW< but what if i want to keep the UCL and the LCL a constant until there is a dramatic change in the process, or some other statistically relevent reason to change the UCL and LCL. Does anyone know how to do this in Excel?
If I have 12 benchs to monitor this way who are doing 20 repairs/day. Ho wlong do I need to collect data to baseline the UCL and LCL. Its hard ot fathom 25 points of data. I am thinking more like 1-2 weeks approx 1200 data points/week. How does one determine how long to colect data for before alllowing the UCL and LCL to become constant as Minitab v16 help tutorials suggest??
Is there any info on how ot predict the future goals for these repair techs using Control Charts? I have seen some data on this, but I am a bit numb on how much is out there (including here) on correct methodolody. Can I add an expected 10% improvement (repairs/day) to these predictions in Minitab assuming we change the process to make it more efficient.
