Did you know that JMP’s default method for calculating Cpk on non-normal data can lead to inconsistent engineering decisions?

In this video, we dive deep into the two main methods for generalizing capability indices to non-normal distributions: the ISO Percentiles method and the Z-Score method. I'll explain why JMP defaults to the Percentile method, the math behind it, and why switching to the Z-Score method provides a much more consistent relationship between your Cpk value and actual process non-conformance metrics.
