This document analyzes variability in the weights of DASANI water bottles. 75 weight measurements were taken and analyzed using time series plots, normal probability plots, I-charts, and autocorrelation plots. The data was found to be correlated and an AR(2) model was fit. Control charts were then created using the residuals, with alerts suggested for weights outside of 475-484g to reduce variability. Project engineering will verify correlations and determine the appropriate control chart method.
2. Define:
Reduce the variability of the DASANI water bottles regarding the weight
DASANI provides the purified bottle water with 16.9 oz which equals to 480
g.
The process of manufacturing the bottle water has a fast consecutive
pattern that might exist variations of weight(higher or lower).
12. Control
Receive an alert if
the weight exceeds
484
Receive an alert if
the weight is less
than 475
