Gage R & R Full Example with ProcessMA

Gage R&R (Repeatability & Reproducibility) is a Measurement Systems Analysis (MSA) technique that uses ANOVA to assess the accuracy of measurements given variation found in parts and operators measuring parts. We start by looking into the setup of the example. The data contains: Three operators: 1, 2, and 3. Three trials: 1, 2, and 3. Ten parts: 1 through 10. This means 90 responses: each operator measures each part 3 times (3 operators x 10 parts x 3 times = 90 responses). Here's a snapshot of the dataset (first 30 rows): To perform a Gage R&R in ProcessMA, select GageRnR (Crossed) under the option Gage RnR as shown in the screenshot below. The following fields should be selected accordingly for the study: Study variation: 6 * the standard deviations of each source of variation Hit OK. The first table of results showcases the ANOVA output. Recall from the ANOVA significance tests that we are looking into two or more factors and their interactions; in this example: pa...
