Resource Type:: Conference Proceeding
Full Text:: PROBLEM SOLVING AND MAINTENANCE LEADS TO QUALITY DRYING AT SIMPSON

On-line lumber quality control technique using image processing

Creator:: Aslam, Fatima
Abstract:: Product quality control is the back bone for an efficient process control system. By monitoring the size of the board cut in a sawmill, performance of the production system can be controlled. Feedback from the quality control system is used to evaluate the status of the production system and also...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

An application of statistical process control measures for maintaining optimal quality from dry kiln operations

Creator:: Maki, Robert G.
Abstract:: Statistical Process Control techniques have been successfully implemented in the mechanical fabrication and chemical manufacturing industries. The techniques consist of the application of statistical theory in conjunction with quality control procedures. To date the Forest Products industry has yet to apply these techniques toward lumber drying. This thesis focuses on...

Performance analysis of the hardware and software components of an optical scanning system for monitoring lumber sizes

Creator:: Leavengood, Scott A.
Abstract:: In recent years, the forest products industry has been forced to cope with a supply of raw material that is declining in both quality and quantity. In addition, log prices are escalating rapidly. Because log costs may represent as much as 90 percent of the overall production costs of lumber...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

An integrated assembly tolerance analysis system

Creator:: Qian, Xiaonong
Abstract:: Tolerance analysis and synthesis plays a vital role in the success of a product design because it directly affects product quality and manufacturing cost. It also affects manufacturing process selection and planning. This research provides a review of several commonly used assembly tolerance analysis models and evaluation of their limitations....

Statistical process control Part 1: An Introduction

Creator:: Leavengood, Scott A., Reeb, J. E. (James Edmund), 1951-, and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: The objective of this series is to help improve the competitiveness of Oregon’s wood products manufacturers. This can be achieved by fostering a companywide focus on and dedication to continuous quality improvement. W. Edwards Deming (1982) described the “chain reaction of quality.” 1. Quality is improved. 2. Costs decrease due...

Statistical process control Part 2: How and Why SPC Works

Creator:: Leavengood, Scott A., Reeb, J. E. (James Edmund), 1951-, and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: The goal for Part 2 is to build management understanding and confidence in SPC as a profit-making tool. It is unreasonable to expect managers to commit to and support SPC training and implementation if they do not understand what SPC is and how and why it works. This publication discusses...

Quality variability in institutional size canned foods : conduction-heated pea puree

Creator:: Nasri, Hassen
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: Master of Science in Food Science and Technology presented on November 20. 1990. Title: Quality

Use of linear and nonlinear programming to optimize surimi seafood

Creator:: Yoon, Won Byong
Abstract:: Least cost formulations for surimi seafood were studied by linear programming (LP) and nonlinear programming (NLP). The effects of water and starches on functional properties of Alaska pollock and Pacific whiting surimi gels were investigated. Six starches (modified potato starch, potato starch, modified wheat starch, wheat starch, modified waxy corn...

Real time quality control for hydrometeorological data

Creator:: Kotwica, Kyle
Abstract:: This thesis investigates the feasibility of implementing a real time quality control program into a data stream of hydrometeorlogical data. The vast array of data used in the forecasting of river levels and avalanches calls for a point of entry quality control method that is both efficient from a communications...
