What is Pareto and how to identify the Top Failures?

The Pareto chart is a statistical tool used to identify and prioritize the main causes of failures in a process. It is based on the Pareto Principle (80/20), which states that about 80% of problems come from 20% of the causes. When applied to test engineering and production, the Pareto

What is Six Sigma?

Six Sigma is a quality management methodology focused on reducing defects, variability, and waste in industrial and organizational processes. Its goal is to achieve an extremely high level of performance, where processes generate a maximum of 3.4 defects per million opportunities (DPMO). Origin and Fundamentals Created at Motorola in the

What is CPK – Process Capability?

The CPK (Process Capability Index) is a statistical indicator used to measure how well a process is performing in relation to its tolerance specifications. It shows whether the process is centered and stable enough to produce within the acceptable limits defined by the design or standard. Why is CPK important?

What are KPIs and why are they crucial in the industry?

KPIs (Key Performance Indicators), or Key Performance Indicators, are metrics used to monitor and evaluate the performance of industrial processes, quality tests, production lines, and even technical teams. They allow for data-driven decisions, identify bottlenecks, optimize processes, and ensure continuous improvement — one of the pillars of success in modern
