Statistical process control in stamping process using pattern recognition approach

Unnatural process variation (UPV) is a vital quality problem in the metal-stamping process that contributes to the causes of poor product quality. In the production site, sources of UPV are usually found based on special causes. Recently, there are still debates amongst researchers to find an effect...
