Fundamentals of Measurement System Analysis

Fundamentals of Measurement System Analysis

podcast episode

When we make a measurement, we make a decision based on the data provided. It’s important to have data close enough to the actual measurement. What is the measurement error if something is supposed to be 2 cm long and we measure it at 2.1 cm?

Every measurement device includes some amount of error. Of course, some measurement systems are better than others. Selecting and trusting a measurement process benefits from understanding the types of errors possible and measuring the amount of error that occurs.

Let’s discuss the process of measuring a measurement system. Just an introduction to the basic types of measurement errors and a common way to quickly identify if you need to improve your process or approach to making a specific measurement.

This Accendo Reliability webinar originally broadcast on 9 July 2019.
