Control charts are powerful tools of statistical process control (SPC) used for monitoring processes. Control charts are not only used to detect changes in process, but also enable the quality engineers to prepare the system for an appropriate response before production of the faulty products. The main objective of most researches on control charts is developing a favorable and cost-effective design as well as most appropriate sampling methods. In most of the researches that have been done in this field, the control charts are designed based on simple random sampling (SRS). However, there are many charts in the literature of statistical process control that are not based on SRS and use alternative methods such as ranked set sampling (RSS) or generalized
methods. The RSS method is an alternative to SRS when taking actual measurement of the quality characteristic is costly or production of the faulty products is expensive. In this paper, in order to improve the performance of mixed EWMA-CUSUM (MEC) and mixed CUSUM-EWMA (MCE) control charts in estimating the population mean, ranked set sampling method rather than common simple random sampling method is used to design these mixed control charts. The performances of the proposed MEC-RSS and MCE-RSS control charts are evaluated through simulation studies using the average run length (ARL) criterion. Moreover, the performances of the proposed control charts are compared with those of CUSUM-SRS, CUSUM-RSS, EWMA-SRS, EWMA-RSS, MEC-SRS, and MCE-SRS control charts. The results revealed that RSS method improves control charts performance compared to SRS method because it provides an efficient estimation of the mean and variance of the population. In addition, using the ranked set sampling scheme makes the proposed mixed control charts more sensitive to detecting the small and moderate shifts in the process mean than the other corresponding classical control charts. Moreover, based on the same sampling methods, the
performances of mixed control charts are better than those of the single CUSUM and EWMA control charts.
