תקציר	Robust process capability analysis extends classical capability indices (Cp, Cpk, Ppk) by replacing the sample mean and standard deviation with robust location and scale estimators — such as the median, trimmed mean, MAD, or IQR-based spread — so that outliers and non-normal process distributions do not inflate or distort the capability estimate. The result is a more reliable assessment of whether a manufacturing or service process can consistently meet specification limits.	Robust Statistical Process Control (Robust SPC) is an engineering quality-monitoring framework that replaces the classical mean and standard deviation estimators used in Shewhart-type control charts with outlier-resistant alternatives — such as the median, MAD, or trimmed statistics — so that isolated contaminating observations or non-normal process distributions do not inflate control limits and mask genuine process shifts.
