XbarS.CapabilityIndexCpk Method 

Returns the capability index c_{pk}.

public virtual double CapabilityIndexCpk(
   double lowerSpecificationLimit,
   double upperSpecificationLimit
);

Parameters

lowerSpecificationLimit
The lower specification limit.
upperSpecificationLimit
The upper specification limit.

Return Value

The capability index c_{pk}.

Remarks

The capability index is

c_{pk}=\min\left[\frac{\mathrm{USL}-\bar{x}}{3\sigma},\frac{\bar{x}-\mathrm{LSL}}{3\sigma}\right]
where LSL and USL are the lower and upper specification limits, \bar{x} is the center line, and
\sigma=\frac{\bar{s}}{c_{4,n}\sqrt{n}}
.
