Abstract

Quality control (QC) charts are essential for ensuring industry process stability, but imprecise data make traditional methods unuseful in such a case. Neutrosophic control charts are available to handle the imprecise data. This article learns fuzzy logic as an approach of handling uncertainty more suitably than neutrosophic approaches. Fuzzy QC charts make use of fuzzy numbers, membership functions and fuzzy control limits and as such are more realistic compared to conventional charts. The study introduces a Fuzzy Adaptive Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (FAEWMA) chart, specifically designed for univariate data in a fuzzy atmosphere. The FAEWMA chart, incorporating α-cuts, is engineered to detect shifts in process means, showcasing its effectiveness through both theoretical development and practical applications. This approach improves decision-making in process control and represents a significant advancement over traditional QC methods.
