7、lculation of Producers Pro-cess Performance Indexes3.Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.2 Despite the adoption of standard test methods,test resultvariation influences the data generated in all testing programs.As outlined in Annex A1,there are two main categories:(1)variation inherent in the production p
8、rocess for a material orclass of objects,and(2)variation due to the measurementoperation itself.Each of these two sources may be furtherdivided into two types of variation:(1)systematic or biasvariation,and(2)random error variation.Both types can existsimultaneously for either of the main categories
9、.3.3 Random variation can be reduced to a low level byappropriate replication and sampling procedures,but biasvariation cannot be so reduced.However,bias variation can bereduced or eliminated by comprehensive programs to sort outthe causes of such perturbations and eliminate these causes.3.4 Element
