1.1.1 Cp/Cpk and Pp/Ppk acc.

AIAG with one evaluation strategy

It is now possible to configure an evaluation strategy output a “secondary” capability


index with a different calculation method on the same report for comparison purposes.
The overall evaluation result will still refer to the “primary” capability index as before.
This functionality can, for example, be used to order to compare the Pp/Ppk and Cp/Cpk
according to the AIAG SPC manual.

Configuration steps:
1. Select the calculation method for the “primary” capability index for both stable
and unstable processes. In this example, the “primary” index shall be the Pp/Ppk
acc. to AIAG SPC manual using the overall process variation. In order to be able
to evaluate different distribution models, the percentile method is selected for
both stable and unstable processes.

2. Select the calculation method for the “secondary” capability index. The settings
for the secondary index are independent of process stability. In this example, the
“secondary” index shall be the Cp/Cpk acc. to AIAG SPC manual using Rbar/dn.
3. Define naming conventions and requirements under “Requirements variable
characteristics”. For the “primary” index, use tabs “Target values / QCC stable”
and “Target values QCC unstable”:

For the “secondary” index, use tab “AIAG Cp/Pp”:


4. After saving and applying the new strategy, the “secondary” indices can be
added to forms and report as output points 5420 and 5450
