This webinar discusses methods for estimating process capability for both normal and non-normal data. Pre-requisites for estimating process capability (e.g. establishing process stability) are discussed first. Distributions are briefly described and methods for estimating ppm levels are presented. The use and limitations of common process capability indices (e.g. Cpk and Ppk) are discussed. It is vital that appropriate methods are used for estimating capability when the data is not well described by a normal distribution. Failure to do so often results in overly optimistic process capability estimates. Methods for testing for normality are discussed. Both transformations and distribution fitting are…
