Abstract:Process capability indices have become popular tools to describe how well a process can meet specified tolerances. However, little attention has been given to the study of these indices when the specified tolerances are one-sided. In this work we present an index for such situations. The proposed index is invariant with respect to process fraction non-conforming and it is "C pk calibrated". Bayesian inference procedure under a binomial sampling is also developed and described for the proposed index.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
