Formule
Formula: Cp = (USL − LSL) / (6σ). Cpk = min((USL − mean), (mean − LSL)) / (3σ).
Questions fréquemment posées
What is Cpk?
Cpk measures how centered and capable a process is relative to its specification limits. A Cpk ≥ 1.33 is generally considered capable.
What is the difference between Cp and Cpk?
Cp measures potential capability (spread only), while Cpk accounts for both spread and centering of the process.
What Cpk value is required for Six Sigma?
Six Sigma quality requires a Cpk of at least 1.67, corresponding to 3.4 defects per million opportunities.
