Questions from FMEA table. Difference is cp and cpk.

Question

Accepted Answer

Cp and Cpk are statistical process capability indices used in FMEA to measure the ability of a process to produce products within specifications.

Cp measures the potential capability of a process to produce products within specifications, assuming the process is centered at the mean.
Cpk measures the actual capability of a process to produce products within specifications, taking into account the process mean and variation.
Cpk is a more accurate measure of process capability than Cp, as it considers both the mean and variation of the process.
A Cp value of 1 indicates that the process is capable of producing products within specifications, while a Cp value less than 1 indicates that the process is not capable.
A Cpk value of 1 indicates that the process is capable of producing products within specifications, while a Cpk value less than 1 indicates that the process is not capable.
In FMEA, Cp and Cpk are used to evaluate the risk associated with a process failure mode and to identify opportunities for improvement.
