1、Designation: D 4583 95 (Reapproved 2009)Standard Practice forCarbon BlackCalculation of Process Indexes From anAnalysis of Process Control Data1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4583; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in t
2、he case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers (1) a statistical procedure foranalyzing the test data generated
3、 in the statistical processcontrol of a carbon black manufacturing process; (2) a formatfor reporting process capability determined from the analysisof control chart data of an individual production run, and (3)aformat for reporting process performance determined from theanalysis of control chart da
4、ta of an individual production run.1.2 This practice specifically applies to the analysis ofpelleted carbon black samples taken during the manufacturingprocess prior to storage. This practice does not apply toshipment samples taken from hopper cars or other containers orpackages.1.3 This practice is
5、 specifically designed to be used forthose test methods given in Classification D 1765 whichspecify target values. However, these techniques are applicableto other test methods on carbon black.1.4 This practice describes the calculation for two methodsof determining capability factors from an analys
6、is of processcontrol data.1.4.1 Process capability (Cp) is a measurement of variationcalculated from the process control chart data with the use ofan estimated standard deviation (s) from the mean value of themoving range (R) chart. The calculation of the process capa-bility (Cp and Cpk) indexes can
7、 be used as historical informa-tion or to predict future performance of the process, but areonly valid when the process is in a state of statistical control.1.4.2 Process performance (Pp) is a measurement of varia-tion calculated from the process control chart data usingsample standard deviation(s).
8、 The calculation of the processperformance (Pp and Ppk) indexes are used for a historicalreference of a process performance and does not require astate of statistical control.2.

Procedure5.1 Sampling:5.1.1 In order to provide uniformity and the ability to makevalid comparisons of process capability and process perfor-mance indexes, all samples used for these calculations shall becollected i
18、n the same way. Samples that are to be tested forproperties on which capability or performance indexes will becalculated shall be collected as follows:5.1.1.1 All samples shall be taken from the process at thefinished pellet discharge and tested individually. Compositingof samples is not permitted.5
19、.1.1.2 Samples normally shall be taken every 4 h. Allresults obtained on material that is put into finished productstorage tanks shall be included.5.1.1.3 Averaging of results is not permitted. Each result, asdefined by the appropriate test method, is to be recorded andused in performing the calcula
20、tions described in Section 6.5.2 Process Capability:5.2.1 A minimum of 30 test data generated during produc-tion periods in which the process is in statistical control arerecommended for estimating a process capability standarddeviation. In that case, the number (n) of moving rangesaveraged will be
21、29.5.2.2 Calculate Cp and Cpk as shown in 6.3 and 6.4. The Cpindex and the Cpk index must be greater than 1.00 in order toindicate the capability of the process to meet the establishedspecifications. The Cpk index is inherently less than or equal tothe Cp index (for one-sided specifications, only th
22、e Cpk indexis applicable).5.2.3 The Cp index indicates whether or not the process iscapable of meeting a specification. Maximum performance isachieved when the process is perfectly centered and the Cpk isequal to the Cp.5.2.4 In comparing one manufacturing unit to another, thelarger Cpk index demons
23、trates a greater capability to conformto the specification range of the specified property.5.2.5 A process capability summary can be used to evaluatea production unit over a period of time such as weekly,monthly, or quarterly. (See Fig. 1.) After each production run,or after 30 or so tests, the valu
24、es of n, x, 6 difference fromtarget, MR,3s, Cp, and Cpk are recorded on the summaryform. At the conclusion of the appropriate time interval, thegrand average x !5, average difference from target, average Cp,and average Cpk can be displayed at the foot of the appropriatecolumn. These average values,
25、especially the Cpk, can be usedto compare the quality levels of different manufacturing units.FIG. 1 Sample Process Capability Summary SheetD 4583 95 (2009)25.3 Process Performance:5.3.1 A minimum of 30 test data are required, withoutregard to the process being in a state of statistical control, whe

Boththe Pp index and Ppk index must be greater than 1.0 in orderto indicate that the process meets speci
27、fications. The Ppk indexis inherently less than or equal to the Pp index (for one-sidedspecifications, only the Ppk is applicable).5.3.3 A process performance summary can be used tosummarize the data generated by the different productionperiods represented in a row of calculated values.
