Attribute Gage R&R Studies - Part 2

bill — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 16:38:51 -0500

June 2010

This is the second newsletter on attribute Gage R&R studies. As stated last month, sometimes a measurement system has a measurement value that comes from a finite number of categories. The easiest one of these is a go/no go gage. This gage simply tells you if the part passes or it fails. There are only two possible outcomes. In the last newsletter, we use a simple go/no go gage to demonstrate how to compare the appraisers. We used cross tabulation tables and calculated kappa values to compare the appraisers.
