Summary:The Shewhart np control chart is often used to monitor the quantity of nonconforming, but it is slow in detecting small deviations. This paper proposes an efficient approach to monitor the quantity of nonconforming. The novelty of the paper is utilization of an initial belief to construct an analytic variable limit np control chart. The proposed method uses all gathered data, sequentially. This approach is significantly faster than some existent effective approaches in detecting small deviations. These charts are mainly used for evaluation of the initial setup in the process. The simulated results for the average run length profiles demonstrate the superiority of the new approach against the standard np chart, binomial CUSUM, binomial EWMA and moving average approach.
