MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS ASSESSMENT (MSA) TRAINING

The objective of the Measurement Systems Assessment (MSA) Training curriculum is to provide participants with the analytical tools and methods necessary to:

Understand key sources of measurement error

Design and Conduct Gage R&R studies to estimate measurement error components (repeatability, reproducibility)

Interpret Gage R&R results and identify corrective actions if necessary

Plan and Conduct Gage R&R studies for attribute systems

Apply control charts to monitor Measurement Systems over time

Assess Accuracy and Linearity of Measurement Systems

Handle Non-Replicable Systems (such as Destructive Tests)

MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS ASSESSMENT TRAINING BENEFITS

Learn how to ensure Measurement Systems (Gages, Operators, Fixtures) are adequate prior to using data for decision making

Develop a solid understanding of the types of Measurement Systems Assessments that may be conducted

Improve the planning, conduct, analysis, and interpretation of Gage R&R studies

Ensure prerequisites for a measurement system study are satisfied

Understand and Consider All Types of Measurement Error (Repeatability, Reproducibility, Bias, Non-linearity, Instability)

Learn techniques for handling destructive testing or other non-replicable measurement systems

Compare and Correlate Multiple Measurement Systems

Assess both Variable and Attribute Measurement Systems

Practice and Apply methods through exercises and case studies
