This model has been applied to Gauge R& R studies to obtain information about repeatability (same operator) and reproducibility (different operators). However, it is an inefficient use of technology if applied directly on measurements taken from multiple variable parts....

Bias is usually studied one equipment (instrument, device) at a time. However, sometimes there are multiple devices available to the appraiser all the same type and model.

A nested gauge R&R is performed when appraisers cannot take measurements using all the measuring devices available for the study.

There are many applications where an organization has multiple sets of measuring devices (equipment) opening the possibility of variation between the different devices, which can introduce an additional source of error to measurements.

A multiple equipment study is an extension of a single linearity study performed by one appraiser using one equipment. It is not uncommon for multiple measuring devices to be available for testing the same parts.

A Gauge Performance Curve is used to determine the probability of accepting or rejecting a part whose value is equal to some reference value.

Gauge repeatability is a measure in terms of standard deviations of how close repeated measurements on the same part, by the same operator are. Gauge reproducibility is about close clustering of repeat measurements, not closeness to the target.

Bias is an important characteristic of a measuring system. It can be defined as the difference between the reference (‘actual’) value of a part and the measured value.

There are several types of Gauge R&R analysis that can be performed. This option is applicable when one reference part is used for the study.

A Gauge R&R (GRR), is used to study repeatability (by the same operator) and reproducibility (by different operators). For this application, consisting of multiple parts an Analysis of Variance is required to extract as much information as possible.

The objective of a Gauge Stability Study is to see how consistent repeatability, reproducibility and bias is over time. This may be achieved in several ways

Attributes measurement systems are a class of systems where outcomes are discrete, not continuous such as a weighing scale. Arguably most attributes gauges are the go-no-go type where a decision on a part is either accept or not accept....

The simple analysis assumes that bias is constant over all measurement ranges. This may not necessarily be the case. Bias may be dependent on the magnitude of the reference value and even testers.

Bias in the measurement system is the difference between the average of measured values and the actual value of a part. The actual value of the part is called the reference value. Ideally the bias should be zero.....
