    Hi all, I have a question. 
    I have an assembly machine that records data readings (pressure measurements) on specific parts.
    The Engineering spec for the parts produced says the specification on the machine  is to be X-bar +/- 4 Sigma.
    If I take 30 or 50 readings from the machine and find X-bar, how do I calculate the UCL and LCL.  with the +/- 4 sigma.
    Thanks,
    Kathy

    Control charts usualy use 3 instead of 4.

    You are mixing specified limits with control limits.

    …please read again;  I’m the one distinguishing specified limits from control limits.

    Thanks for the help all.
    If I understand it right I need to multiply the standard deviation by 4 then add and subtract by X-bar.
    Thanks again
