Bonus Points # 3
In teams of 4 people, go to the Project Office and
perform a gage R & R study on the 7 parts.
Half of the teams measured with the micrometer
Half of the teams measured with the dial calipers
Entire team works together to analyze the data –
for the 4 Operators, estimate:
σ2 total
σ2 repeatability
σ2 reproducability
σ2 product
P/T for gage, assuming USL – LSL = 0.005”

Bonus Points # 4
In teams of 4 people, go to the CIM Lab (CM 203) and set up a control
chart strategy for the “pipe-bomb” machine.
Dr. Jensen will demonstrate the system, each team operates afterward.
The team will collect data using the scale, and track the data using the
spreadsheet template, each control chart should have 30 samples.
Entire team works together to collect and analyze the data for the
system, and to create and interpret x – and R – charts.
For the lab exercise, briefly report:
What your control chart strategy is (what did you measure and why)
Turn in print out of your trial control charts, and describe how the limits were
developed
For each control chart, use your Trial Control Limits* on all 30 sample points, and
interpret each chart for control using the 4 Western Electric Rules:

Convert your Trial Control Limit data to Standards
Circle Western Electric Rule violations, and describe what they show

Gage Capability Studies
Ensuring adequate gage and inspection system capability
In any problem involving measurement the observed
variability in product is due to two sources:
Product variability - σ2product
Gage variability - σ2gage
i.e., measurement error
Total observed variance in product:
σ2total = σ2product + σ2gage (system)

e.g. Assessing Gage
Capability Cont'd
Estimate standard deviation of measurement error:
gage R d2 1.0 1.128 0.8865
Dist. of measurement error is usually well approximated by the
Normal, therefore
Estimate gage capability:
6ˆ gage 6 0.8865 5.32
That is, individual measurements expected to vary as much as
3 gage 3 0.8865 2.67
owing to gage error.

Precision-to-Tolerance
(P/T) Ratio
Common practice to compare gage capability with the width
of the specifications
In gage capability, the spec width is called the tolerance band
(not to be confused with natural tolerance limits, NTLs)

Gage Std Dev Can Be Expressed
as % of Product Std Dev
Gage standard deviation as percentage of product
standard deviation :
ˆ gage
0.8865
100%
100% 29.2%
ˆ product
3.04
This is often a more meaningful expression,
because it does not depend on the width of the
specification limits

Using x and R-Charts for a
Gage Capability Study
On x chart for measurements:
Expect to see many out-of-control points
x chart has different meaning than for process control
shows the ability of the gage to discriminate between units
(discriminating power of instrument)
Why? Because estimate of σx used for control limits based
only on measurement error, i.e.:
R d

On R-chart for measurements:
R-chart directly shows magnitude of measurement error
Values represent differences between measurements made by same
operator on same unit using same instrument

Repeatability & Reproducibility:
Gage R & R Study
If more than one operator used in study then measurement
(gage) error has two components of variance:
σ2total = σ2product + σ2gage
σ2reproducibility + σ2repeatability
Repeatability:
σ2repeatability - Variance due to measuring instrument
Reproducibility:
σ2reproducibility - Variance due to different operators

Gage capability is not as good when we account
for both reproducibility and repeatability
Train operators to reduce σ2reproducability = 0.1181
Since σ2repeatability = 1.0195 (largest component), direct effort
toward finding another inspection device.
