Abstract:

Process capability of a process is defined as inherent variability of a process which is running under chance cause of variation only. Process capability index is measuring the ability of a process to meet the product specification limit. Generally process capability is measured by 6 assuming that the product characteristic follows Normal distribution. In many practical situations the product characteristics do not follow normal distribution. In this paper, we describe an approach of estimating process capability assuming generalised g and h distribution proposed by Tukey.

Estimating process capability indices using ridge regression

Process capability indices show the ability of a process to produce products according to the pre-specified requirements. Since final quality characteristics of a product are usually interrelated to its previous amounts in earlier workstations, one need to model and consider the relationship among them to assess the process ca-pability properly. Hence, conducting process capability analysis in ...

Estimating Process Capability Indices of Multivariate Non-Normal Processes

The capability analysis of production processes where there are more than one correlated quality variables is a complicated task. The problem becomes even more difficult when these variables exhibit non-normal characteristics. In this paper, a new methodology is proposed to estimate process capability indices (PCIs) of multivariate non-normal processes. In the proposed methodology, the skewness...

Understanding Process Capability Indices

1. Introduction A process capability index is a numerical summary that compares the behavior of a product or process characteristic to engineering specifications. These measures are also often called capability or performance indices or ratios; we use capability index as the generic term. A capability index relates the voice of the customer (specification limits) to the voice of the process. A ...

Process Yield and Capability Indices

Capability indices measure the performance of a process. Although process yield is the primary focus on the performance criteria, the " ( , ) p C u v indices combine process yield and process centering. With this compromise, there is no direct link between the process yield and these indices, but literature provides lower and upper bounds for the process yield. However errors in the proposed re...

Capability Indices for Rayleigh Process

Monitoring, control and improvement of quality are  important  for companies.  Process capability indices (PCIs) are tools widely used by the industries to determine  the quality of their products and the performance of their manufacturing processes. Classic versions of  these  indices were constructed for processes whose quality characteristics have  a  normal distribution. But, many of these ...
