One day the packet-filling process average weight drifts


Canine Gourmet Super Breath dog treats are sold in boxes labeled with a net weight of 15ounces (425grams) per box. Each box contains 10 individual 1.5-ounce packets. To reduce the chances of shorting the customer, product design specifications call for the packet-filling process average to be set at 43.043.0 grams so that the average net weight per box of 1010 packets will be 430 grams. Tolerances are set for the box to weigh 430 lus or minus±155grams. The standard deviation for the packet-filling process is 1.011.01 grams. The target process capability ratio is 1.33. One day, the packet-filling process average weight drifts down to 42.0 grams. Is the packaging process capable? Is an adjustment needed?
