A Study of Measurement Systems Analysis by Attributes

Abstract

The paper presents a critical measurement systems analysis (MSA) of the implementation of "go-no go" gauges for control of mechanical parts. The MSA by attributes is generally overlooked when compared to MSA by variables. Nevertheless, this type of MSA is especially useful when applied in mass production where the use of variable gauges is time-consuming and costly. The outcomes of the study can be adapted to similar measurement systems analysis for other manufacturing processes and mechanical parts.
