How to calculate the UCL upper control limit?

First calculate your Center Line (the average or median of the data.) Next calculate sigma. The formula for sigma varies depending on the data. From the center line, draw llines at ± 1 sigma, ± 2 sigma and ± 3 sigma. + 3 sigma = Upper Control Limit (UCL)

How to calculate lower limit and upper limit?

Formula: Lower Limit Value = x – (l x s) Upper Limit Value = x – (- l x s) Where, x = Control Mean s = Control Standard Deviation l = Control Limit you Wish to Evaluate
