Event Description
Measurement System Analysis (MSA) and Process Capability (Cpk) have a symbiotic relationship. One can’t work well without the other. A good Cpk is not feasible without an effective MSA. Come for a basic refresher on Cpk. See how it works and learn about its critical dependency on a passing MSA. This is an interactive session where participants will be asked to engage in the process.
Presentation Summary
Quality, Operations and Lean practitioners must often understand the basic principles of how data from variables gaging can be incorrect leading to improper assumptions about process performance and/or result in ineffective corrective actions. Measurement System Analysis (MSA) gaging system results need to be verified as effective prior to evaluating the capability of a process. Participants will be taken through a high level overview on process capability (Cpk) onto which an MSA Gage Repeatability & Reproducibility (GRR) will be overlaid so that they can clearly see the opportunities for alpha and beta errors to be incurred by an unsuspecting operator and/or an automated measurement system. This powerful takeaway arms attendees with rapid knowledge and steps of what to do and how to check if they have systems at risk. This empowers professionals with the ability to reduce variation in the measurement process and, potentially, reduce variation in the product or process itself creating the potential for a lasting solution. The session is structured in an interactive format throughout the presentation where participants will work on calculations. There is interactive engagement regarding the GRR samples provided and then relational knowledge is shared. There will be time at the end of the session for additional questions. This is not death by powerpoint, it is fast paced and engaging.
Learning Objectives/Takeaways
1: Understanding how the MSA GRR and Cpk are interdependent
2: Practical understanding as to how alpha and beta errors can occur in a capable process.
3: Evaluating how to ensure that a gaging system that can enable process capability (should the other normal sources of variation be in control)
