Understanding process capability analysis.

What is Cpk (Process capability index)?

Cpk measures how well a manufacturing process performs within specification limits, considering process spread and centering between Upper specification limit (USL) and Lower specification limit (LSL).

Cpk > 1.33
Capable & well-controlled
Cpk 1.00 – 1.33
Marginally capable
Cpk < 1.00
Not capable

Cpk = min[(USL – μ) / 3σ, (μ – LSL) / 3σ]

Where:

μ = process mean

σ = process standard deviation (short-term)

USL = upper specification limit

LSL = lower specification limit

What is Ppk (Process performance index)?

Ppk evaluates overall process performance over time, using total variation including common and special causes.

  • Uses overall standard deviation (long-term variability)
  • Reflects real-world manufacturing performance
  • Accounts for process drift and variation

 

Ppk = min[(USL – μ) / 3σ_total, (μ – LSL) / 3σ_total]
