MSA provides an understanding of the capabilities of a measurement system. This seminar provides an overview of the application and requirements of the measurement system requirements from the automotive industry MSA 3rd Edition manual.

Who Should Attend:
Personnel responsible for the measurement system.

What You Will Learn:
The importance of a reliable measurement system. Learn different ways of evaluating bias and variation, which includes: accuracy, linearity, stability, repeatability & reproducibility (GRR). Learn to apply this information to your current measurement system and selection of instrumentation.

Duration and Fee: 1 day; $395 + HST

Prerequisites: None. Basic understanding of variation and SPC is recommended.

CEUs: 0.8
