Questions and Answers

Which index would you use if only an upper specification limit is known?

  • Cpu (correct)
  • Ppk
  • Cpk
  • Cp

What does the measurement capability index (Cm) measure?

  • The speed of production
  • Financial performance
  • The efficiency of marketing campaigns
  • The variability of the measurement system (correct)

Overcontrol of a process can result in less variability.
