This is required by ISO 9001. Calibra tion does not, however, ensure or even measure precision; the consiste ncy with which the gages return the dimension in question. This is the purpose of measurement systems analysis (MSA), or gage reproducibilit y and repeatability (R&R). Objective of the webinar :\nAttendees will learn the rationale behind MSA, and also the generally accepted practi ces for performing it. This material includes:\n\nUnderstanding the ef fect of gage variation on outgoing quality and statistical process con trol\nLearn how to quantify gage variation components.\nRepeatability is variation inherent to the gage and the measurement procedure.\nRepr oducibility is variation due to differences in how inspectors perform the measurement.\nThe total gage variation is a function of these two variation sources (square root of the sum of the two variances).\n\n\n Apply the standard procedure for a gage repeatability and reproducibil ity study.\n\nLearn potential remedies for non-capable gages including replication of measurements and guard banding.\n\n\n\n\n\nAreas Cover ed in the Session :\n\nCalibration (comparison of the gage's average m easurement of a standard's dimension against the standard's actual dim ension) and precision (the gage's ability to return the same measureme nt consistently) are two separate but important aspects of measurement system performance.\nGage R&R refers to repeatability (variation inhe rent to the gage, similar to common cause variation) and reproducibili ty (variation due to differences between inspectors).\nGage variation affects not only outgoing quality but also the power of SPC charts to detect process shifts. It does not however increase the false alarm ri sk for SPC charts.\nThe standard procedure for MSA includes minimum re quirements for parts, inspectors, and replicated measurements. Readily available software such as Minitab and StatGraphics can then identify the variance components (repeatability and reproducibility) and overa ll gage variation, and also perform tests for the adequacy of the stud y.\n\nA table of the d*2 factors (necessary for performance of the cal culations in Excel) will be provided.\n\n\n\n\nWho Will Benefit:\n\nMa nufacturing  engineers\nQuality engineers\nTechnicians\nInspectors wi th responsibility for inspections that involve quantitative measuremen ts of parts.\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Speaker:\nWilliam A. Levinson, P.E., FAS Q, CFPIM, is the owner of Levinson Productivity Systems PC. He holds p rofessional certifications from the American Society for Quality, APIC S, and Society of Manufacturing Engineers.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor more infor mation visit https://medtechiq.ning.com/events/webinar-on-measurement- systems-analysis DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20171207T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20171207T140000 CATEGORIES:webinar LOCATION:Online WEBSITE:http://bit.ly/2A6cfWt URL:http://bit.ly/2A6cfWt CONTACT:1-844-216-5230 ORGANIZER;CN="Sam Miller":https://medtechiq.ning.com/profile/SamMiller ATTACH;FMTTYPE="image/jpeg":http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/ file/get/2562016504?profile=original ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Sam Mill er":https://medtechiq.ning.com/profile/SamMiller END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
