Question: 9 7 % throughput yield is not bad, but how good is it in the grand scheme of things? Let s do some quality performance

97% throughput yield is not bad, but how good is it in the grand scheme of things? Lets do some quality performance calculations to figure out where your organizations performance stands. Some of your units have more than one defect. As a result, there are 78 defects total in one day. There are 3 opportunities for a defect to occur in one unit, meaning the hole could be messed up, the length could be wrong, and/or the width could be wrong. Calculate the following quality metrics below.
ROUND 5 QUALITY PERFORMANCE
Number of defects DF (given): DF =_____
Number of opportunities per unit OP (given): OP =_____
Total output TO4: TO4=_____
Number of units with defects:
# Units with Defects=TO_4-DAO_5
# Units with Defects =_____
Average number of defects per unit (uses total output rather than # units with defects):
DPU=DF/TO_4
DPU =_____
Parts (defects) per million units PPM:
PPM=DPU*1,000,000
PPM =_____
Defects per million opportunities DPMO:
DPMO=(DF*1,000,000)/(TO_4*OP)
DPMO =_____
Sigma level (use the table below to find the right sigma level based on your calculated DPMO): Sigma Level =_____
DPMO SIGMA LEVEL
308,5002.0
158,7002.5
66,8003.0
22,7003.5
6,2004.0
1,3004.5
2305.0
305.5
3.46.0
