  1. Process Capability (Cp & Cpk) - Six Sigma Study Guide

    Jun 2, 2025 · While the Cp shows the process potential capability, Cpk shows the actual performance considering centering. Both can be accurate together if the process is off-center.

  2. Process capability index - Wikipedia

    The mapping from process capability indices, such as C pk, to measures of process fallout is straightforward. Process fallout quantifies how many defects a process produces and is measured by …

  3. Understanding Process Capability Index (Cpk) [With Calculator]

    Apr 25, 2023 · Understanding Process Capability Index (Cpk) is crucial in Statistical Process Control (SPC). It measures a process's ability to meet specifications, providing insights into performance and …

  4. Process Capability Analysis Cp, Cpk, Pp, Ppk - A Guide

    The index Cp provides a measure of potential process capability i.e. how well a process can perform if there is no change in the underlying process conditions. Cpk uses "s-short-term" to predict the …

  5. Process Capability Index (Cpk) - What is Six Sigma

    Process capability index (Cpk) is a statistical tool, to measure the ability of a process to produce output within customer’s specification limits. In simple words, it measures producer’s capability to produce a …

  6. What is Process Capability? Capability Estimates & Studies | ASQ

    Potential capability (Cp) and actual capability during production (Cpk) are process capability estimates. C p and C pk show how capable a process is of meeting its specification limits, used with continuous …

  7. Process Capability (Cp, Cpk) vs Process Performance (Pp, Ppk)

    Jan 19, 2026 · Understanding the difference between process capability and process performance is one of the most important concepts in Statistical Process Control (SPC). Many quality engineers …

  8. Cpk vs. Ppk: Clearing Up the Confusion | ASTM

    Aug 5, 2025 · Process capability index (Cpk) and process performance index (Ppk) are typically used to quantify the performance of a process compared to its specification. Unfortunately, there are many …

  9. Process Capability: How to Measure and Improve Your Processes

    Apr 15, 2025 · Process capability uses indices, such as Cpk and Cp, to measure how consistently a process delivers results within set specification limits.

  10. Cp Cpk - Process Capability, formulas, recommendations, interpretation

    Dec 30, 2024 · Process capability evaluates the degree to which a characteristic falls within specification limits. It compares the process's "boundaries" to the specification limits, helping determine whether …
