Monitoring analytical measurements in presence of two component measurement error

Control charts are increasingly adopted by laboratories for effective monitoring of analytical processes. Analytical methods are mostly subject to two types of measurement errors, i—additive and ii—multiplicative, or proportional, error. These errors have been combined in a single model, namely the two component error model (TCME) proposed by 1]. In this study we present a comparison among the performance of three widely used location control charts, i.e. Shewhart, CUSUM and EWMA charts in presence of TCME model. This study will help quality practitioners to choose an efficient chart for the monitoring of analytical measurements.
