    Nitin is using control charts to monitor thickness and diameter of pipes. Samples are taken every 30 minutes and thickness is measured at 4 places. The tolerance is +/- 0.5 mm and standard thickness is 5.0 mm. Readings over 8 hours are in a table. The document discusses calculating central line, UCL, LCL, drawing control charts, and determining if the system is under control. It also discusses Deming's statement that quality is a range, implementing quality control systems with sequential steps, and using control charts.
