Tolerance analysis in manufacturing using process capability ratio with measurement uncertainty

Testing capability indices for manufacturing processes with asymmetric tolerance limits and measurement errors

Most research works related to process capability indices assume no gauge measurement errors. However, such an assumption inadequately reflects real situations even when advanced measuring instruments are employed. If we do not take into account these errors, conclusions drawn from process capability are therefore unreliable. In this paper we study the sampling distribution of capability indice...

Generalized Statistical Tolerance Analysis And Three Dimensional Model For Manufacturing Tolerance Transfer in Manufacturing Process Planning

Process Capability Optimization in Multistage Manufacturing Processes Based on the Cost-Utility Ratio

To solve the problem that process capability optimization in multistage manufacturing processes has not been studied so much. Firstly, a multistage manufacturing process quality variation model is built to analyze the impaction of each stage quality on process capability. Then, a multistage manufacturing process capability analysis method with “Costutility ratio” is proposed to prioritize proce...

Manufacturing Process Capability and Specification Limits

In modern electronics, specifications for products have constantly been tightened due to performance competition. The processes for product development and manufacturing have been developed to meet the tighter specifications and quality requirements. The development of test methods and measurement devices have not been as fast, and as a consequence, the relative impact of measurement errors has...

Fuzzy inference to assess manufacturing process capability with imprecise data

Process capability indices provide numerical measures on whether a process conforms to the defined manufacturing capability prerequisite. These have been successfully applied by companies to compete with and to lead high-profit markets by evaluating the quality and productivity performance. The loss-based process capability index Cpm, sometimes called the Taguchi index, was proposed to measure ...
