Question 9
A measurement systems experiment involving 20 parts, three operators (Op-1, Op-2, Op-3), and two measure-
ments (M-1, M-2) per part is shown in Table 5.
(a) Estimate the repeatability and reproducibility of the gauge.
(b) What is the estimate of total gauge variability?"
(c) If the product specifications are at LSL = 6 and USL 60, what can you say about gauge capability?
Question 5
A fraction nonconforming control chart with center line 0.10, UCL = 0.19, and LCL = 0.01 is used to control a
process.
(a) If three-sigma limits are used, find the sample size for the control charte
2
(b) Use the Poisson approximation to the binomial to find the probability of type I error.
(c) Use the Poisson approximation to the binomial to find the probability of type II error if the process fraction
defective is actually p = 0.20.
Question 8
Ten parts are measured three times by the same operator in a gauge capability study. The data are shown in
Table 4.
(a) Describe the measurement error that results from the use of this gauge. I
(b) Estimate total variability and product variability.
(c) What percentage of total variability is due to the gauge?
(d) If specifications on the part are at 100±15, find the P/T ratio for this gauge. Comment on the adequacy
of the gauge.
