Pages 223-229 | Published online: 21 Feb 2018
 

Abstract

Lower confidence limits are derived for the common measures of process capability, usually indicated by Cp, CPU, CPL, and Cpk. The measures are estimated based on a random sample of observations from the process when the process is assumed to be normally distributed and has reached a state of statistical control.
