Everything between the readings and the report.

Cpkboard does one job: turn the measurements your shop already takes into control charts, capability indices and a report your customer can check.

Charts and indices

The charts your customer's quality engineer expects, with the math they can check.

Textbook formulas from the AIAG SPC and MSA manuals. Every number says which sigma estimate it used.

Variables charts

  • X-bar and R (subgroups of 2-10)
  • X-bar and S (subgroups over 10)
  • Individuals and moving range (I-MR)

Attributes charts

  • p and np for defective parts
  • c and u for defects per unit
  • Variable sample sizes handled

Capability

  • Cp, Cpk from within sigma (R-bar/d2)
  • Pp, Ppk from overall sigma
  • One-sided specs and target values

Rules

  • Western Electric rules 1-4 on by default
  • Nelson rules optional
  • Flagged on the chart and on the board

Histogram and spec

  • Bins against USL and LSL
  • Out-of-spec readings in red
  • Normal curve overlay

Gage R&R (Pro)

  • Crossed, average and range method
  • %GRR, %EV, %AV, %PV, ndc, % of tolerance
  • Type 1 gage study
The feature board

One row per feature. The Cpk that goes on the PPAP, right there.

What it doesn't do

Cpkboard sticks to charts, capability and gage studies.

So you know before you sign up.

Designed experiments and regression

Keep Minitab or JMP for DOE, regression, ANOVA and reliability work.

A full QMS

No document control, CAPA or supplier audits. Cpkboard plugs into the QMS you have with its exports.

Validated medical-device software

We don't claim 21 CFR Part 11 compliance. If you need it, you need a validated system.
