In this article Dr Kemp describes the use of the cumulative sum chart for controlling the quality of a continuous manufacturing process. Tables are given from which sampling schemes can easily be devised for controlling a normally distributed variable and the percentage of defective items being produced. A comparison is made between some properties of the cumulative sum chart and those of other types of chart.
