Note:

This calculator helps determine the **Defect Rate (%)**, which indicates the proportion of defective items in a batch, providing insights into manufacturing quality.

Understanding the Parameters:

• Defective Items: The number of units that do not meet quality standards due to material flaws, process errors, or equipment failures.
• Total Items Produced: The total count of all units manufactured, including both defect-free and defective products.

Why This Matters:

• Helps in monitoring and improving product quality.
• Lower defect rates indicate higher production efficiency and better cost management.
• Essential for quality assurance methods such as Six Sigma and lean manufacturing.
