Variation of quality

Ink jot printing has the inherent capablity to displace many of tha mechanical processes since it is an electronic technology. Data can b printed from any digitized source such as a scanner or a computer such that plates are not necessary for multi-color printing. This makes it equally easy for single or multiple copies With no variation of quality. 

Starting from the OPC, several modifications may be obtained with different kinds of aggregate, by the introduction of special pore structure of appropriate parameters, by variation of quality and quantity of cement and also by application of a large variety of available admixtures and reinforcements. The application of various technologies also contributes to enlarging the field of materials based on ordinary concrete. 

As a first step in the direction outlined here some manufacturers and BAM last year discussed the problems and the possible procedures of such a system of quality assurance. As a result of this meeting round robin tests for the harmonization of the measurements of film system parameters and a possible procedure of surveillance of the quality of film systems were proposed. Closely related to these the BAM offers to perform the classification of film systems. But as during the production of films variations of the properties of the different batches cannot be avoided, the results of measurements of films of a single batch will be restricted to this charge, while only the measurements and mean of several batches of a film type will give representative values of its properties. This fact is taken into account already in section 4 of the standard EN 584-1 which can be interpreted as a kind of continuous surveillance. In accordance with this standard a film system caimot be certified on the base of measurements of a single emulsion only. 

The method was applied for determination of the quality of the detection media on test pieces following the type testing of the European standard [4] in order to check the validity of the method. The other application was the determination of the visibility in dependance of the variations of the inspection parameters (application of the detection medium, magnetization, inclination, viewing conditions) in a range which may appear in the practical inspections. The results leads to conclusions on the visibility level which is a measure of the probability of recognition for the indication that means of the reliability of the method. 

The principal tool for performance-based quality assessment is the control chart. In a control chart the results from the analysis of quality assessment samples are plotted in the order in which they are collected, providing a continuous record of the statistical state of the analytical system. Quality assessment data collected over time can be summarized by a mean value and a standard deviation. The fundamental assumption behind the use of a control chart is that quality assessment data will show only random variations around the mean value when the analytical system is in statistical control. When an analytical system moves out of statistical control, the quality assessment data is influenced by additional sources of error, increasing the standard deviation or changing the mean value. 

In continuous processes where automatic feedback control has been implemented, the feedback mechanism theoretically ensures that product quality is at or near the set point regardless of process disturbances. This, of course, requires that an appropriate manipulated variable has been identified for adjusting tne product quality. However, even under feedback control, there may be daily variations of product quahty because of disturbances or equipment or instrument malfunctions. These occurrences can be analyzed using the concepts of statistical quahty control. 

Bucket elevators are the simplest and most dependable units for making vertical lifts. They are available in a wide range of capacities and may operate entirely in the open or be totally enclosed. TFe trend is toward highly standardized units, but for special materials and high capacities it is wise to use specially engineered equipment. Main variations in quality are in casing thickness, bucket thickness, belt or chain quahty, and drive equipment.

Seasonal variations of the wood quality in the panel board industry... 

The experience of the particleboard industry on the influence of seasonal variations of the wood quality has been reported. Problems occur especially using wood which has been harvested in the wintertime and which goes into board production immediately. 

Variation in quality and delivery performance will reduce through common application of requirements for ... 

The standard doesn t require a procedure for Management Review and while it does require procedures for Design Control it does not specify that a Design Review Procedure is required. The phrases consistent with and in accordance with have the same meaning as both imply compatibility and agreement. If you restrict yourself to a literal interpretation of the standard, you need produce no more than 43 documented procedures - possibly less if some aspects do not apply to your business. You can combine several procedures in one document, the size of which depends on the complexity of your business. The more complex the business the greater the number of quality system documents. The more variations in the ways that work is executed, the larger the quality system will need to be. If you have a small business and only one way of carry-... 

If the mixing is "perfect," tlie estuary behavior may be approximated by what chemical engineers define as a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) (5). However, accurately estimating the time and spatial beliavior of water quality in estuaries is complicated by the effects of tidal motion as just described. The upstream and downstream currents produce substantial variations of water quality at certain points in the estuary, and tlie calculation of such variation is indeed a complicated problem. How ei er, the following simplifications provide some reiiitirkably useful results in estimating the distribution of estuarine water quality. 

Then there is the question of quality. The variation principle only tells us about energies we might calculate the variational integral... 

From the practical point of view, the principal variation of environment which is definitely under the control of the cultivator, is, of course, the alteration in the composition of the soil, which is brought about by scientific manuring, llie analysis of fruits and vegetables will give the ordinary agriculturist much information as to the necessary mineral ingredients to be added to the soil but in the case of essential oils, the conditions are entirely different. The various parts of the plant tissue are affected in different ways by the same mineral salts, and successful development of the fruit or any other given part of the plant may have little or no relationship with the quantity or quality of essential oil produced. So that it is only by actual distillations of the plant, or portion of the plant, coupled with an exhaustive examination of the essential oil, that informative results can be obtained. 

Photoelectric-Colorimetric Method. Although the recording spectrophotometer is, for food work at least, a research tool, another instrument, the Hunter multipurpose reflectometer (4), is available and may prove to be applicable to industrial quality control. (The newer Hunter color and color difference meter which eliminates considerable calculation will probably be even more directly applicable. Another make of reflection meter has recently been made available commercially that uses filters similar to those developed by Hunter and can be used to obtain a similar type of data.) This instrument is not a spectrophotometer, for it does not primarily measure the variation of any property of samples with respect to wave length, but certain colorimetric indexes are calculated from separate readings with amber, blue, and green filters, designated A, B, and G, respectively. The most useful indexes in food color work obtainable with this type of instrument have been G, which gives a... 

Under poor operational conditions, tannin chemistry is a particularly forgiving form of internal treatment because it tolerates FW with significant variations in quality. It is capable of delivering clean, corrosion-free waterside surfaces in many types of boilers, despite low FW temperatures, high oxygen levels, and hardness ingress. It is especially suitable for use in smaller facilities that do not have the benefit of full-time, trained operators, and under on-off, batch process, or permanent low-fire circumstances.

It is interesting to point out the small variation of the average value of the variable Ef(r)-modulus of the mesophase, which reflects the uniformity of the adhesion quality of these series of composites, which is also indicated by the almost linear variation of the composite modulus, versus the volume content. 

Due to the chemical structure, fimctionality and composition of their constituents, ordinary variations of the processing conditions as well as the quality of the raw materials have been observed to lead to changes of the fine structure which are often responsible of lower ageing resistence of the polymer. The data reported here correlate the morphology of some widely utilized epoxy matrices to the informations that can be obtained from the study of the sorption behaviours. 

One factor which affects the extent of polymer-solvent interactions is relative molar mass of the solute. Therefore the point at which a molecule just ceases to be soluble varies with relative molar mass, which means that careful variation of the quality of the solvent can be used to fractionate a polymer into...
