Suppose that the sample means and ranges are calculated for 36 samples of size n = 5 for a process that is considered under statistical control. Then the mean of the 36 sample means and ranges are calculated, yielding 20.50 and 5.60, respectively:
=2.4075
The upper specification limit ,USL= 20+6=26
The Lowe Specification limit,LSL= 20-6 =14
Process capability,CP=
= 0.8307
=min(0.76150,0.89996)
Process capability index,CPK= 0.76150
Here CPK<CP.So the varaiation in performance is high.
