"As a supplier of capital equipment to the semiconductor industry, the dependability of our test solutions is paramount. In our partnership with Ops A La Carte, we are applying the HALT methodology as a proactive tool to root out the key failure modes in our early and advanced prototypes--so that our pilot and production units deliver the dependability that our customers demand."
---Rick Casler, VP Engineering, Electroglas

Fundamentals of Statistical Process Control (SPC)
COURSE OBJECTIVES
This Statistical Process Control (SPC) course presents a number of valuable tools to assist you in evaluating process variation and to make sound decisions based on your data. Topics covered included the following:
 Pareto Charts and Check sheets for failure and Visual Data
Histograms for understanding variation in measurable data
Variables and Attribute Control Charts (including p Charts)
Process Capability and Yield Determination Studies
Correlation Studies with Guard-banding
Interpretation and Corrective Action including Out-Of-Control guidelines
Correlation and Regression
