PROCESS CAPABILITY

Cp vs Cpk: what the difference actually tells you

Compare processes with the same spread but different centering, then connect Cp and Cpk to stability, MSA, and interpretation.

STATISTICAL PROCESS CONTROL

X-bar and R charts: subgroup logic before limits

See why a stable range chart can coexist with a shifted process mean—and why capability does not erase an SPC signal.
