TO THE QS-9000 THIRD EDITION GUIDELINES
Measurement
System Analysis (MSA) and Gage Management are important in
controlling variation in measurement systems. Measurement
Systems Analysis Training (MSA Training), a computer-based and
web-based training program can help your company comply with QS-9000
MSA requirements.
MSA
includes detailed tutorials on many measurement system analysis
techniques including how to conduct and analyze GR&R (Gage
Repeatability and Reproducibility) Studies. A GR&R is the
accepted techniques for evaluating the level of variation in a
measurement system and determining if the measurement system is
acceptable for use.
Measurement
System Analysis covers techniques for analyzing the variation within
a measurement system, determining its suitability for use, and ways
to improve measurement systems. The GR&R analysis
techniques used in MSA are in compliance with QS-9000/AIAG methods.
Once
a measurement system is found to be acceptable, it is equally
important to institute a formal system to manage the measurement
system to ensure that it continues to be reliable and dependable. MSA
explores approaches to managing measurement systems to ensure that
they can be depended upon.
