Abstract
The process capability indices (CPI) are often used to obtain the information about the production process capability and there are some criteria in determining it, the criteria which are designed for the true values of CPI's. However, since the true values of CPI's are unknown in practice, they are estimated from several data. So the criteria might not be applied to these (point-) estimated values. Confidence intervals for CPI's should be constructed and these results should be taken into consideration. In this paper some useful and practical methods for the interval estimation are given.
