New capability indices for measuring the performance of a multidimensional machining process

作者:

Highlights:

• We propose three novel capability indices for multidimensional machining processes.

• Consider the variances of machining results on different directions may not be equal.

• The statistical properties of the point estimators for the new indices are derived.

• The simulation results show that the new indices outperform the predecessors.

• Two numerical examples further demonstrate the usefulness of our proposed indices.
