C_pk=min[(USL-\mu )/3\sigma ,(\mu -LSL)/3\sigma ]
Z(\pm SL)=3\times C_pk (\pm SL)
Row a.
C_p=(+0.04-(-0.04))/(6\times 0.02)=0.67
C_pk=min[(10.04-10.00)/(3\times 0.02),(10.00-9.96)/(3\times 0.02)]=min[0.67,0.67]=0.67

2. The Lowell MFG Co. has a policy of Cp =1.XY (For X, Y use your last two-digit UML ID)
for all new products. All sheet metal specifications are designed with a tolerance of +4 mils. The control charts of the sheet metal process in manufacturing are maintained with a daily monitoring of 16 samples. The cost of each reject was calculated at $ 5.00. Assume a manufacturing process average or X double bar of 100 mils.
a. What should the X bar and R chart control limits be to meet the CP target?
X double bar ____ UCLx ______ LCLx _____ Rbar____ QLF ______
b. What is the reject rate for new parts ________,_______ppm
c. If the sheet metal punch press average was shifted by 1 mil, what will the new Reject Rate be:
PPM___, Cpk ______
d. If the Motorola definition of Cp was used (1.5 sigma shift), what is the reject rate?
________%,_______PPM, Cpk _______

3. The Lawrence MFG Co. has a policy of Cp =1.XY (For X, Y use your last two-digit UML ID)
for all new products. The sheet metal department has an X Bar control chart with X double bar at 100 mils, Upper Control Limit of 109 mils and Lower Control Limit of 91 mils, based on taking 9 daily samples. A new housing is being designed with a critical parameter of 100 mils. The cost of each reject was calculated at $1.00.
What should the product specifications be to meet the Cp target?
USL______ LSL_________
b. What do expect the reject rate ____%,____PPM
c. If you were using the MOTOROLA definition of Cp=1.2(all processes have an average shift of 1.5 sigma). What is the reject rate in ppm? QLF using the actual process as indicated by the Xbar chart?
RR ______ppm, QLF _____
