Overview/Description
Process capability is determined by a range of variables including people, machines, materials and measurements. The cumulative result must be quantified numerically to determine current performance and project future potential. To do so requires a knowledge of control limits, specification limits, capability indices, and the difference between short- and long-term variability. This course teaches Six Sigma® Black Belts the process capability techniques to analyze current output and project expected value. Six Sigma is a registered Trademark of Motorola Corporation, and all rights, title and interest in Six Sigma belongs to Motorola.
Target Audience
Candidates for Black Belt certification; managers/executives overseeing personnel involved in the implementation of Six Sigma in their organization; consultants involved in implementing a Six Sigma proposal; and organizations implementing a Six Sigma project
Expected Duration (hours)
2.0
Lesson Objectivesrecognize the benefits of analyzing process capability.
sequence examples of the steps of a process capability study.
decide whether a process capability index has been correctly determined and Six Sigma capability is shown.
determine the process capability index (Cp) given a set of data, and analyze the results.
determine whether Cpk has been correctly calculated and interpreted.
determine the center of the data (Cpk) relative to customer specifications, and analyze results.
recognize the value of knowing process performance (Pp) and process specification (Ppk).
determine whether Pp has been correctly calculated and analyzed.
calculate the correct figure for Ppk, given a set of data, and analyze the results.
match analysis use of attribute data to examples.
select examples of the ways that attribute data has been used to improve process performance.
