• Overview
• Data considerations
• Example

• Enter your data
• Specify information about the elements
• Specify the gap sensitivity in the Pareto chart
• Specify options for the variance pool
• Estimating missing standard deviations

• Interpret the results

• Calculations for the design statistics
• Calculations for the specification limits
• Calculations for the gap distribution (long-term statistics)
• Calculations for the gap distribution (short-term statistics)
• Calculations for the mean pool and the variance pool
• How Minitab estimates missing standard deviations with a confidence limit
• How the upper specification affects the calculations of the gap pools
