Abstract
We evaluated robust process centering for battery quality control under 43% batch variability. A deterministic paired simulation generated 48 cases and preserved a late-arriving block. Mean defect-screening yield changed from 0.519 to 0.568; the paired difference was +0.049 (95% interval +0.047 to +0.052). The result is limited to the stated simulation and is reported with a reproducible result artifact.
