1. The specification limits for the width of a part produced in a new machine is 3 ± 0.008 centimeters. The standard deviation of the process is estimated to be 0.003 centimeters.
2. What is the value of process capability index (Cp) for this process?
3. What percentage of the parts would be outside the specifications for the width of the part if the process were operated and centered at 3.000 centimeters? Assume normal distribution of measurements.
