  • Major defect
  • Minor defect
32
Q

can endanger life or property, may render the product non-functional

Minor Defect

35
Q

Classification of Defects

  • According to Measurability
A

–Variable Defect
–Attribute Defect

36
Q

single, measurable quality characteristic

A

Variable Defect

37
Q
  • Not represented numerically
  • Defective or non-defective
  • Conforming or Non-conforming
A

Attribute Defect

38
Q

Classification of Defects

  • According to Nature
A

–Ocular Defect - visible
– Internal Defect – not seen but present
–Performance Defect - function

39
Q

Variations

– Cannot be identified and unavoidable
– Common and inherent on the process
– Cause slight differences in process variables like diameter, weight, service time, temperature, etc.

A

Random

39
Q

Variations

– Assignable
– Causes can be identified and eliminated
– Typical causes are poor employee training, worn tool, machine needing repair, etc.
