Level: Intermediate   Astrid Ruck, Senior Specialist in Statistics, Autoliv Chris Gotwalt, JMP Director of Statistical Research and Development, SAS, SAS Laura Lancaster, JMP Principal Research Statistician Developer, SAS   Measurement systems analysis is a measurement process consisting not only of the measurement system, equipment and parts, but also the operators, methods and techniques involved in the entire procedure of conducting the measurements. Automotive industry guidelines such as AIAG [1] or VDA [4] investigate a one-dimensional output per test, but they do not describe how to deal with data curves as output. In this presentation, we take a first step by showing how to perform a gauge repeatability and reproducibility (GR&R) study using force vs. distance output curves. The Functional Data Explorer in JMP Pro is designed to analyze data that are functions such as measurement curves, as those which were used to perform this GR&R study.   ... View more
