Cusum Chart in Excel

Cumulative Sum Charts Can Detect Small Shifts in a Process

Cusum charts can detect process shifts more rapidly than the XmR or XbarR. If a trend develops, it's evidence that the process has shifted.

A Cusum Chart consists of:

  • A target which is either provided by you or calculated as the mean of your data.
  • Upper Cusum Limit and Lower Cusum Limit lines.
  • C+ and C- lines which represent the cumulative sum of deviations of successive sample means from a target.  Use these lines to determine if your process is shifting.
