Question 1: In process data analysis, what is the best way to handle missing data in a dataset collected from multiple sensors?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Assume the missing data is irrelevant and remove it without analysis

Ignore the missing data and proceed with the available data

Use the mode to fill in missing data without considering the distribution

Use imputation methods such as mean, median, or model-based techniques to estimate the missing values

Question 2: How do you apply the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle in a manufacturing process for continuous improvement?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By acting without planning and evaluating changes

By introducing new technology without analyzing current processes

By systematically identifying problems, implementing solutions, measuring results, and refining the process

By focusing on speed and eliminating all downtime

Question 3: How do you use process mapping to identify inefficiencies in a production process?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By visually representing the steps in a process, identifying delays, bottlenecks, and non-value-added activities

By relying solely on operator feedback without mapping the process

By ignoring the steps involved and focusing on final output

By focusing only on the flow of materials without considering steps

Question 4: How do you troubleshoot an issue where a liquid flow rate in a pipeline is lower than expected?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By replacing the pump without further inspection

By ignoring pressure readings and assuming the system is fine

By increasing the flow rate manually

By checking for blockages, verifying pump and valve function, and ensuring correct pipe sizing

Question 5: In process optimization, which is the most effective method for reducing cycle time?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Increasing employee work hours

Reducing setup time

Increasing work in progress (WIP)

Adding more machines

Question 6: Which of the following is the most critical factor when performing maintenance on a process that uses corrosive chemicals?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Inspection of all electrical components

Verification of flow rates

Use of personal protective equipment (PPE)

Calibration of pressure gauges
