MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS ANALYSIS AND A STUDY OF ANOVA METHOD

Abhimanyu Yadav

Abstract: Instruments and measurement systems form the base of any process improvement strategies. The much widely used QC tools like SPC depends on sample data taken from processes to track process variation which in turn depends on measuring system itself. The purpose of Measurement System Analysis is to qualify a measurement system for use by quantifying its accuracy, precision, and stability and to minimize their contribution in process variation through inherent tools such as ANOVA. The purpose of this paper is to outline MSA and study ANOVA method through a real-time shop floor experiment.

Keywords: SPC, Accuracy, Precision, Stability, QC, ANOVA
