I believe you are asking if you can assume that all tablets in a production run are acceptable if your standard deviation is low. My answer to that is that you can assume they are all acceptable, providing that the tablet press was not stopped during the run and that the granulation was a very good blend with no interruption in the flow of the material to the press.
Lean Production is a well consolidated style of production, mostly related to the Manufacturing Industry.
Lean Production is often called Lean Manufacturing.
In a nutshell:
Lean Production is "lean" because it has no "fat", where fat is "waste". Therefore Lean Production is synonymous with "waste-less" production.
Generally, in a Lean Production Line:
- materials flow continuously (Continuous Flow) from Processing Station to Procession Stations
- with little/no time and space gap in between processing stations
- value is added to materials at all Processing Stations
- with minimal/no waste (idling, parking, moving, checking, counting, etc.) between processing stations
- with minimal/no waste in the operation being performed at each Processing Station
- until the final product is ready with no defects
What are the functions by the gates in casting process?
Gate is the portion of the runner through which the molten metal enters the mold cavity. Depending on application, many types of gates are used in casting design. Parting gate is commonly used. The metal enters the mould at the parting plane when part of the casting is in the cope and part in the drag. Gate is specially, the point at which molten metal enters the casting cavity. A mould cavity must be filled with clean metal in a controlled manner to ensure smooth, uniform and complete filling, for the casting to be free of discontinuities, solid inclusions and voids. This can be achieved by a well-designed gating system. The first step involves selecting the type of gating system and the layout of gating channels, the orientation and position of sprue, runner and ingate. The most critical design decision is the ideal filling time, based on which the gating channels are designed.
Pig iron is the intermediate product of smelting iron ore with a high-carbon fuel such as coke, usually with limestone as a flux. Charcoal andanthracite have also been used as fuel. Pig iron has a very high carbon content, typically 3.5-4.5%, which makes it very brittle and not useful directly as a material except for limited applications.
The traditional shape of the molds used for these ingots was a branching structure formed in sand, with many individual ingots at right angles to a central channel or runner. Such a configuration is similar in appearance to a litter of piglets suckling on a sow.
When the metal had cooled and hardened, the smaller ingots (the pigs) were simply broken from the much thinner runner (the sow), hence the name pig iron. As pig iron is intended for remelting, the uneven size of the ingots and inclusion of small amounts of sand was insignificant compared to the ease of casting and of handling.
Other Answers:
Pig iron is called pig iron because due to it shape and molds. When the iron come out from its mold due to it contain % of carbon and it look black pigs, when it come out of it mold it look like pigs standing in a group so it is called pig iron.
____________________
Definition of Pig Iron: The term was derived from the method of casting the bars of iron in depressions or moulds formed in the sand floor adjacent to a furnace. These were connected to a runner (known as a sow) and when filled with metal the runner and the numerous smaller moulds were supposed to resemble a litter of suckling pigs, hence the term pig iron.

Wrought Iron is Pig Iron.
____________________
It was Abraham Darby II (1711-63) who improved the quality of coke-smelted pig iron and made it suitable for forging into wrought iron. Wrought iron was the result of forging pig iron by continued hammering and reheating in order to produce a material which was supple enough to be made into tools and implements.

What are Manufacturing overhead budget uses?
The manufacturing overhead budget show the expected manufacturing over head costs for the budget period. The budget distinguishes between variable and fixed overhead costs. Companies fluctuate with production volume on the basis of the following rates per direct labor hour: indirect materials $1.00, indirect labor $1.40, utilities $0.40, and maintenance $0.20. Thus, for 6,200 direct labor hours budgeted indirect materials are $6,200 (6,200 x $1), and budgeted indirect labor is $8,680 (6,200 x $1.40). The company recognizes that some maintenance is fixed. The amounts reported for fixed cost are assumed.
