Abstract: Measurement System Analysis (MSA) can be fun, always impresses the customer, and can often result in an important surprise or two. Learn why Gage R&R is only one part of the equation for achieving near risk free measurements of all types.

Blooms Based Syllabus

We will be covering the following topics in varying amounts of detail as outlined. Reviewing = talking and seeing slides. Understanding = being able to answer simple test questions. Learning = being able to apply the topic in an exercise. Mastering = demonstrating application in your company.

Concept
- Understand what MSA's are
- Learn what Gage R&R is (exercise)
- Review extreme Gage R&R case studies
Analysis
- Review steps to take in analyzing MSA's
Statistical Software
- Review Excel, Minitab, Statistica, and Stat Graphics examples of the above.
