Process Capability (Symmetric Spec)

Select the sub group size(n) [ Preferred n = 5 ].Here the program is given for n = 5

Decide the frequency of measurement.

Set the process to nominal (mean)dimension

Measure the parts of ‘n’ sub group size consecutively at defined frequencies

Follow the established process conditions / instructions throughout the production

Identify and make note whenever any assignable cause is observed

Take measurement for min 25 sub groups. If it is not possible take for 10 subgroups.

Enter all values in work sheet,study the results and take actions accordingly

To Establish Control limits perfectly for future monitoring,follow the steps.

Check whether all the sub group ranges are within UCLR & LCLR. If any subgroup is
deviated, discard that subgroup and recalculate for remaining. For Example : one sub
group is dicarded, X dbar,R bar,sigma,Cp & Cpk etc should be calculated for 24 subgroups
which is not possible with present work sheet given.It has to be done separately.

Repeat the above step till all the subgroup ranges fall within UCLR LCLR

Check whether all the sub group values are within UCLX & LCLX.If any subgroup is
deviated, discard that subgroup and recalculate for remaining. For Example : one sub
group is dicarded, X dbar,Cp & Cpk etc should be calculated for 24 subgroups which is not
possible with present work sheet given.It has to be done separately.

Repeat the above step till all the subgroup values fall within UCLx LCLx

If number of subgroups discarded is more than 20% of total subgroups, discard the entire
study and analyse for the causes.
