Sigma Level Calculator

The document contains calculations to determine sigma levels for counted defects and measured data. For counted defects, the sigma level was 3.28 in the short term and 1.78 in the long term based on defects, opportunities per unit, and units produced. For measured data using process mean, standard deviation, and specification limits, the short term sigma level was -1 and long term was -2.5 based on z-scores and proportions of units above and below specifications.

ting Sigma Level for Counted Defects

Excel Formulae
(do not include spaces and use numbers instead of labels)

= (Defects / (Opportunities per Unit * Units Produced) x 1000000

= Long Term Sigma Level + Sigma Shift

Based on empirical evidence

= NORMSINV(1- (Defects / (Opportunities Per Unit * Units Produced))

ating Sigma Level for Measured Data

Excel Formulae
(do not include spaces and use numbers instead of labels)

= (USL - Mean) / Std Dev

= (Mean - LSL) / Std Dev

= 1 - NORMSDIST(Zusl)

= 1 - NORMSDIST(Zlsl)

= PAS + PBS

= NORMSINV (1 - TPOS)

= Short Term Sigma Level - Sigma Shift
