Item Characteristic Metrics

This Item Characteristic functionality allows you to analyze the inspection results of the item characteristic. The results are displayed using Distribution Histograms, Process Capability Control Charts, and Quality Control Charts.

• Distribution histogram: These histograms are used to ascertain the variation in values by displaying a standard distribution curve of measured values, for an item.
• Process capability control charts: These charts are used to ascertain that the variation in process related characteristic is controlled statistically, by creating a chart which contains a calculated and target based upper and lower control levels.
• Quality control chart: This chart combines both the Process capability control chart and the Distribution histogram for the same aspect, characteristic, or both of the item and the specified date range.
