Based on analyzing the process capability indices, a production department can trace and improve a poor process to enhance quality levels and satisfy customers. The process capabilit y analysis can also serve as an important reference for making decisions for imp roving the global quality of all products. Since C p and C pk are failed to account for process centering, the index C pm is developed. The index C pm takes the process centering into consideration and is su itable for the processes with nominal-the-best type. There are other indices l ike C pu and C pl, and those indices are used for unilateral s pecification processes. Chou (1994) developed a procedure using estimators of C p, C pu and C pl for practitioners to determine whether two p rocesses are equal capability or not. For bilateral specifications processes, i ndex C p is failed to measure process yield and process centering.

The larger process capability index implies the higher process yield, a nd the larger process capability index also indicates the lower process expected loss. Chen et al. (2001) has applied indices C pu, C pl, and C pk for evaluating the process capability for a multi-process product wi th smaller-the-better, larger-the-better, and nominal-the-best specificati ons respectively. However, C pk cannot reasonably reflect the process expected loss. In this paper, index C pn is selected to replace C pk. Indices C pu, C pl, and C pn are used to evalu ate the entire process capability for a multi-process product with smaller-the -better, larger-the-better, and nominal-the-best specifications respectivel y. An integrated process capability index for a multi-process product is propo sed. The relationship between process capability index and the process yield is introduced. A multi-process capability analysis chart (MPCAC), reasonably rev ealing the status of process capability for the entire product, is constructed f or practical application.

The coincidental degree of distribution center between the product quality and the spec tolerance is considered in the method, and the parameter of actual standard deviation is used. So the indices have higher accuracy and reflect the essential aspect of the problem.展开更多

The process performance index (when a process indicated by control charts is under control) and the percentage of defective products are calculated and compared with kσ. Finally, compared 6σ with 3σ, when process is on nominal (nominal - mean), the process has 1.5σ shift from nominal.展开更多

文摘Introduction:Effective on-site disinfection of epidemic foci is a critical role in preventing the transmission of infectious diseases.On-site disinfection service providers(ODSP)are a key force in the emergency response systems.This study assessed ODSP capabilities and developed a standardized evaluation indicator system to aid managers in provider selection and supervision.Methods:A capability evaluation indicator system for ODSP was developed and applied to 88 providers in Shanghai in 2024.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were plotted by correlating the capability evaluation scores of ODSP with historical disinfection efficacy to determine the optimal threshold.Kappa consistency analysis evaluated the agreement between the new scoring system and historical performance outcomes.Results:The scoring rates for management systems,material reserves,personnel capability,and quality control were 93.75%,90.45%,75.08%,and 51.97%,respectively.ODSP with a history of failed on-site disinfection efficacy evaluations scored significantly lower in personnel capability and quality control than those with consistently passing evaluations(P<0.01).The area under the ROC curve(AUC)for the assessment indicators was 0.954[95%confidence interval(CI):0.898,1],with an optimal capability score threshold of 70 points.The Kappa coefficient was 0.822.Conclusion:ODSP should further strengthen its quality control measures.There is a significant gap in capability scores among these providers;therfore a hierarchical certification system should be established.The evaluation indicator system for these providers can serve as a tool to assist in dynamic supervision.
