  • The paper outlines a comprehensive three-step approach to the development of advanced strategies for quality control of a complex machining process. The research framework is a developed concept for Integrated Supervisory Process Control. The promising results obtained demonstrate a non-traditional approach to the deployment of quality and productivity requirements set by the system users, whereby the efficiency and systematization of the development of quality control strategies can be significantly improved.

  • Tolerance design has been identified as an important research area and a number of models have been proposed in the literature. This paper investigates the effect of limited capacity on tolerance design for products with nominal-the-best type (N-type) quality characteristics. The model is developed under the assumption that the reprocessed and nonreprocessed items are produced by the same manufacturing process and therefore their quality characteristics are identically and independently distributed. Profit models are constructed which involve four price/cost components; selling price, cost incurred by imperfect quality, reprocessing and quality inspection costs. Methods of finding the optimal tolerance limits are presented, and a numerical example is given. Sensitivity analyses are also performed to study the effect of a process standard deviation on this model.

  • Resistance spot welding is one of the most widely used processes in sheet metal fabrication. Quality assurance of welding has been important to increase the productivity. In this study, weld quality estimation using primary circuit dynamic resistance applied to the in-process real-time systems. For quality estimation, factors relating to quality were extracted from the dynamic resistance, measured in the timer. The relationship between these factors and weld quality was determined through a artificial neural network model. This method has the advantage over the conventional one, such as obtaining the quality information without the use of extra devices.

  • Supply Chain Management is the process of planning, implementing and controlling the operations of the supply chain to satisfy customer requirements as efficiently as possible. It spans all movements and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from point-of-origin to point-of-consumption. Korean Standards Association claims the Supply Chain Quality Management(SCQM) as a win-win model of organizations among the supply chains for the best product/service quality to final customers. The SCQM is focused on quality of product/service and will do much for improving manufacturing performance between customer and suppliers. Consulting-teams make every effort to design suitable solution for constructing solutions and improving the performance. This study is to analyze the performance of SCQM consulting, from July of 2007 to June of 2008, and would provide some guidelines to design the optimal consulting models and develop guidebooks.

  • It's not easy to detect the high quality and functional compounds for control quality of food materials. The electronic nose was an instrument, which comprised of an array of electronic chemical sensors with partial specificity and an appropriate pattern recognition system, capable of recognizing simple or complex odors. It can conduct fast analysis and provide simple and straightforward results and is best suited for quality control and process monitoring in the field of functional foods. Numbers of applications of an electronic nose in the functional food industry include discrimination of habitats for medicinal food materials, monitoring storage process, lipid oxidation, and quality control of food and/or processing with principal component analysis, neural network analysis and the electronic nose based on GC-SAW sensor. The electronic nose would be possibly useful for a wide variety of quality control in the functional food and plant cultivation when correlating traditional analytical instrumental data with sensory evaluation results or electronic nose data.

  • Purpose: In this study, we developed a service quality audit system through analyzing service processes of airlines' cabin service. Methods: Applying the qualitative approach to service processes analysis; 'service blueprint' methodology was developed, providing airlines a blueprint for cabin service and applying the quantitative service quality audit approach called 'walk-through audit', an audit methodology tailored to airline cabin service called PCPA (Passenger Cabin Patrol Audit) was developed. Results: This study tried to apply both the qualitative and the quantitative methodologies to develop service quality audit checklist and tried to develop details to systemize them into a new methodology. Conclusion: This study will be helpful for Airline services improvement by providing 'service quality audit model', so as to find out the problems and share those with the stakeholders.

  • As more individuals and organizations participate in the complex design process of manufacturing industry, collaborative product development and management of the global supply chain have become more popular. Although the product quality concerns once focused on the manufacturing process, they are now directed at earlier stages of the design cycle where the engineering product is created as a 3D CAD model. In this paper, we describe the current state of product data quality activities in the manufacturing industry and the yardstick to measure 3D CAD data quality. Moreover we introduce a quality assurance method through the result of statistical analysis of 3D CAD models and suggest a six sigma level of CAD data quality by analyzing 76 samples provided from three Korean automotive companies.

  • Boresight process is to match the misalignment between PNU(Position Navigation Unit) and the reference axis of K-MLRS cage. It is important process to ensure accuracy of K-MLRS. When PNU is removed from cage in the previous alignment procedure, there is a misalignment angle with cage of K-MLRS during reassembly process. Therefore, boresight process is always need to align reference axes between PNU and K-MLRS cage. However, this study has proposed the case alignment process that it enable to correspond to reference axes between ISA (Inertial Sensor Assembly) block and PNU case. So, improved alignment procedure enables to install PNU in the reassembly process without additional boresight process.

  • Resin transfer molding process has been widely used in the automobile industry, because the product with large area can be manufactured easily and the cost for the manufacturing is lower than that of compression molding and hand lay up method. Since RTM process is suitable for large bus housing panels, in this work, the composite housing panel was manufactured by RTM process and the mechanical properties, surface quality and the condition of manufacturing process were studied.
