– in mass production
– as a control mechanism
• Subsequently applied to any measurable

Principles of SPC for Variable Data
• Normal distribution has consistent variation
• Variation unit is ‘Standard Deviation’ - s (Sigma)
• Standard deviation is calculated using:
s = (fx2/n) - x2 (Root Mean Square method)

Principles of SPC for Variable Data
• Standard deviation :s = (fx2/n) - x2 (Root Mean Square method)

Defects with spec. limits at:
1 sigma = 31.74% = 317,400 dpm
2 sigma = 4.56% = 45,560 dpm
3 sigma = 0.27% = 2,700 dpm
Principles of SPC for Variable Data
• Normal distribution relative to limits
– forecasts scrap
– defines process capability
– enables process control
‘Normal’ distribution
Lower control limit
Upper control limit
Lower spec. limit
Upper spec. limit

Capability Studies
• Process capability is relative to:
– defined limits
– location of process mean
– spread of process
Moderate spread
Moderate placement
Narrow spread
Poor placement
Broad spread
Good placement

Capability Studies
• Purpose of capability studies
–
–
–
–
to define process capability
to help identify limiting causes
to demonstrate capability to customers
to improve process capability
• reduce defects, waste, cost, customer returns
• undertake higher spec. work
– to employ statistical process controls
© 2002 Systex Services
Capability Studies
• Two basic measures of capability
Cpk
Cp
– spec. range 6s
– lower value of
– no account of placement

Capability Studies
• What is a good Cpk ratio?
• Minimum normally 1.33 Cpk
– based on 4 sigma spread
– extra sigma compensates for
• larger spread over time & larger population
• particularly mean shift
– equivalent to 63 DPM on centred process
• Many companies now looking for 2.0 Cpk
– consistent with 6 sigma concept
– equivalent to 0 DPM
• based on centred process
• allowing up to 2 sigma shift

• Capability studies also indicate:
– trends
– cycles

Benefits
Risks
• Large cost reductions:
– AlliedSignal $800M (95/7)
– GE $600M (3Q97 gain)
• Performance bonus link
• Capability quantified
• Investors & stakeholders
understand financial gain
• Customer needs measured
• Year one payback - ROI
potential 20% + thereafter
• Large initial investment
off putting
• Poor follow through
• Short term thinking
• Changed priorities
• New leadership
• ‘Tried that’ (no longer use
it!)
• Fear of statistics
