Introduction to Process Capability ─ How to Evaluate and Improve It

In earlier articles, we talked about three statistical indicators for process capability: Cp, Ck, and Cpk. But some people may still feel unclear about what these really mean. Let’s use normal distribution charts to explain them in a simpler way.

What’s the Difference Between Electromigration (EM) and Electrochemical Migration (ECM)?

At first glance, Electromigration (EM) and Electrochemical Migration (ECM) might seem alike. In both cases, metal atoms or ions move from a high-voltage area to a low-voltage area, and both can lead to dendrite growth. But they’re actually very different … Continue reading

How to Perform Process Capability Analysis?

Process Capability refers to how well a process can produce quality products once it becomes stable. In real production, many variable factors can cause the process to fluctuate. By applying statistical methods, we can better understand how the process is … Continue reading

What’s the Difference Between Quality and Reliability?

Do you know the difference between quality and reliability? These two terms often get confused, but if you dig deeper, they actually mean different things. So how do you tell them apart? (The following is just Workingbear’s personal opinion and … Continue reading

Process Capability Improvement Flowchart

Personally, Workingbear think this process capability improvement flowchart is quite well-organized, so I cleaned it up a bit and decided to share it with everyone. Please note: Before implementing Statistical Process Control (SPC), the process conditions must first be quantified. … Continue reading
