Learning Outcomes

In this free course, you will learn how to:

• Analyse how measurement systems affect the reliability of results
• Describe the main parts of a measurement system and their roles
• Distinguish actual variation from changes caused by measurement
• Compare measurement accuracy, range, and stability over time
• Plan an MSA study with suitable items, conditions, and trials
• Arrange measurement order and record results consistently
• Identify sources of repeatability, reproducibility, and part-to-part variation
• Calculate Gage R&R results using suitable study methods
• Select crossed or nested study structures for different situations
• Evaluate measurement results using contribution and variation measures
• Assess whether a measurement system is fit for use
• Review improvements by checking the measurement results after the changes
