Course Objectives
Attendees will discover the amounts and types of variation that exist in measurement systems, to ensure that product acceptance or process control decisions are based on “good data.” The course explains how to conduct studies to evaluate variability due to bias, repeatability, reproducibility, stability and linearity. Workshops will be performed to simulate the Gage R&R calculations per the AIAG Measurement Systems Analysis, Third Edition. The course will also give the student a means to evaluate and document the validation of test and calibration methods. The attendees will learn the measurement systems analysis requirements of ISO/TS 16949 and how the measurement system can impact the financial metrics of a manufacturing organization.

Who Should Attend

• Quality and metrology managers
• Laboratory and technical personnel
• Design, manufacturing, process, quality, and test engineers
• Calibration and maintenance personnel
• Environmental laboratory managers
• Inspectors, technicians, SPC coordinators
• Suppliers

Note: Attendees should bring a calculator that can perform statistical computations, average, standard deviation, etc.
