Calibration & MSA
Reliable Gauge R&R studies and ISO-compliant calibration logic to minimize measurement uncertainty.
Validating the Validator
If the machine measuring your parts is mathematically biased or structurally inconsistent, your entire quality control feedback loop is contaminated.
Our extensive Measurement System Analysis (MSA) protocols ensure that the inevitable statistical variation within the measurement system itself is rigorously quantified, isolated, and controlled. We perform strict compliance testing matching both AIAG (Automotive Industry Action Group) core tool methodologies and the deeply analytical German VDA 5 framework to unequivocally distinguish true part-to-part manufacturing variation from simple measurement noise.
Whether evaluating a hand-held micrometer or a fully automated 5-axis CMM cell, our documented statistical studies provide the definitive proof required for Tier-1 automotive and aerospace PPAP submissions.
- • Type 1 Studies (Cg/Cgk): Assessing fundamental instrument capability, resolution, and bias without operator influence against calibrated master reference rings/spheres.
- • Type 2/3 Studies (%GRR): Fully crossed ANOVA Gage Repeatability and Reproducibility studies factoring in multiple operators, parts, and environmental trials.
- • Machine Capability (Cm/Cmk): Long term, in-cell verification determining the statistical stability of your automated inspection cells over time.
