He adopted the piecewise linear profit function to measure the net income for a product quality characteristic is normally distributed. However, the non-normal quality characteristic of product maybe occur in the industrial application. In this paper, the author proposes the modified Carlsson&#8217;s models with beta and Weibull quality characteristics for determining the optimum process mean. A numerical example and sensitivity analysis of parameters will be provided for illustration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Keywords:&nbsp;Piecewise Linear Profit Function; Beta Distribution; Weibull Distribution; Process Mean<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:2rem\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-tkuwpbs5-bs5-div ref_ol\" data-aos=\"normal\">\n<ol>\n<li>[1] Carlsson, O., &#8220;Determining the Most Profitable Process Level for a Production Process under Different Sales Conditions,&#8221; Journal of Quality Technology, Vol. 16, pp. 44-49 (1984).<\/li>\n<li>[2] Golhar, D.
