X-Bar & R Charts

A pair of control charts, X-bar and R (range) charts are used for processes with a subgroup size of two or more. The X-bar and R charts help determine if a process is stable and predictable. The X-bar shows how the mean or average changes over time and the R chart shows how the range of the subgroups changes over time.

X-Bar & S Charts

A pair of control charts, X-Bar S (standard deviation) charts used for processes with large subgroups. These charts are used when the subgroups have a large sample size. The S chart provides a better understanding of the spread of subgroup data than range.
