Measurement System Analysis MSA

Measurement System Analysis MSA

Duration (Days)

3

Overview

This course is designed to help participants assess, monitor and reduce measurement system variateion. The system consis of five major characteristics of variation : bias, stability, linearity, repeatability and reproducibility. Through the program participation will be able to learn how to detect meaningful differences in process variables.

Objectives
  • Apply measurement system analysis to prevent special and common causes of variation in processes.

  • Understand the basic rules of measurement system analysis and use for various process parameters.

  • Perform GR&R analysis study.
