Ppk

Process Performance Index Ppk

Long-term performance index considering overall process variation and centering relative to specification limits.

Examples

  1. 01After six months of production, the Ppk of the press-fit force is 1.21, below the customer's 1.33 target.
  2. 02Every quarter, the supplier's Ppk values for all 14 key characteristics are compared, and any value below 1.33 needs an action plan.
  3. 03When Ppk shows the process off-centre, the team adjusts the setting to bring the average back to nominal.
