Answer : B
With Measurement Systems Analysis (MSA), we want to determine how much of the variation in our data is due to:
- A. Variation in our measurement system
- B. Manufacturing Equipment
- C. Part to part variation
- D. Lot to lot variation
Answer : A
% R & R can be expressed as:
- A. % productivity divided by run rate

- C. Sigma of the measurement system divided by total sigma
- D. Variance of the measurement system divided by total variance
Answer : C
If you have a gauge study with a % R&R of 25% what should you do?
- A. Pull the tool from production.
- B. This is fine-go ahead.
- C. This is not acceptable for critical measurements, you should look into improvements in the measurement process.
- D. This is only an issue if you fail calibration.
Answer : C

- A. 30
- B. 60
- C. 120
- D. 10
Answer : B
A measurement system is said to have a consistent bias if:
- A. The standard deviation of the system is consistent across the measurement range
- B. The difference between the average reading of the measurement tool and reference value is the same across the operating range of the tool operation
- C. The standard deviations of the reading given by the measurement tool when measuring a standard is the same across the operating range of the tool operation
- D. All tools of the same type give the same variance reading
Answer : B
