Article Preview

Abstract:

One source of variation in a process is generated by measurement. This paper is presenting a case study of Measurement System Analysis (MSA) in a wood industry process. It is necessary to do an analysis of the measurement system used in a company in order to be competitive and to gain the trust of the client. The aim of the paper is to show the steps done during a measurement system analysis and how to interpret the graphic results, but also the data generated by the Software. For this paper all the simulations were done in Minitab, but similar simulations can be done with other software programs.
