The Manage Limits Report

The Manage Limits report contains several tables that enable you to enter specification limits or other column property metadata for each process column that was specified in the Manage Limits launch window. The report also contains buttons to load and save specification limits and save the information to column properties.

Process Capability

Process Screening

MSA

Detection Limits

Buttons

Process Capability

The Process Capability section of the Manage Limits report enables you to add specification limits and define the Process Capability distribution for each process column.

Spec Limits

The table in the Spec Limits section contains a row for each process column that was specified in the Manage Limits launch window. For each column, you can add specification limits as well as use the following options:

Show Limits

Specifies that the Show as Graph Reference Lines option is selected in the Spec Limits column property for the specified column.

Process Importance

Specifies the process importance value for each column. Process importance values provide a mechanism to sort processes in a preferred order. Process importance values are used to size markers in many platform graphs.

Units

Specifies the units for each column.

Process Capability Distribution

The table in the Process Capability Distribution section contains a row for each process column that was specified in the Manage Limits launch window. You can define a Process Capability distribution for each process.

Process Screening

The table in the Process Screening section contains a row for each process column that was specified in the Manage Limits launch window. For each column, you can specify the centerline, specified sigma, and measurement sigma. Once you save your specifications, you can use them when you launch the Process Screening platform. See Limits Table.

MSA

The table in the MSA section contains a row for each process column that was specified in the Manage Limits launch window. For each column, you can specify the lower and upper tolerance or tolerance range, reference, resolution, historical mean, and historical process sigma. Once you save your specifications, you can use them in the Measurement Systems Analysis (MSA), Type 1 Gauge, and Variability Chart platforms. See Measurement Systems Analysis, Type 1 Gauge Analysis, and Variability Gauge Charts.
