major changes in order to eliminate the root causes of the changes. Statistical process control has found widespread application in the manufacturing of discrete parts industries for process improvement‚ process parameter estimation‚ and process capability determination. Engineering process control (EPC)‚ on the other hand‚ uses measurements to adjust the process inputs intended to bring the process outputs closer to targets. By using feedback/feedforward controllers for

control within target limit for defects. However‚ even though the process is statistically in control in an instance according to control charts‚ it may not conform to the requirement specifications. So the Kyung evaluated “Process Capability” using “Process Capability Ratio (Cp).” The book “Operations Management” defines that the “Cp is the ratio of the range of the design specification (the tolerance range) to the range of process variation” and explains if Cp is

Introduction: Six Sigma is a business management strategy designed to meet customer needs and process capability. Six Sigma seeks to improve the quality of process outputs by identifying and removing the causes of defects and minimizing variability in manufacturing and business processes.
