SPC
Quickie 98 is an entry-level SPC software
package for X-bar & R, X moving R and Histogram / Capability studies.
Control chart displays allow real-time data entry i.e. instant
calculation and plotting of subgroup points on displayed graphs when
data is entered. SPC Quickie 98 provides comprehensive analysis
and superior printed report layout.
The SPC Quickie98 program and documentation have
been created for intuitive operation by both novice and experienced
users. Its database is easily convertible to the more comprehensive
DataLyzer® Spectrum system. SPC Quickie98 is an excellent first step
toward automating SPC data collection and record keeping tasks.
Features

English to Spanish, French, Dutch, German, or Portuguese. Platforms
supported include Windows® 95/98/2000/Me/XP/NT.
SPC Quickie 98 uses a simple approach to real-time statistical
process control, displaying both X-bar and R graphs during data entry.
Widely recognized summary statistics like Ppk, Cpk and CpRatio are
immediately recalculated and displayed.
