Measurement system analysis (MSA according to AIAG/VDA 5)
Measurement system analysis according to AIAG and proof of suitability according to VDA 5 enables you to qualify and optimize your existing test processes in compliance with standards.
Measurement system analysis (MSA) is the standard-compliant qualification of measurement and testing processes. The measuring system analysis is used to determine whether your measuring equipment is suitable for testing a specific test characteristic and whether the measuring equipment is being used correctly.
We support you in carrying out a measurement system analysis and proceed in seven individual steps.
- Process description and analysis: In cooperation with you, we start with the measurement system analysis by first creating a detailed process description. On this basis, we carry out a process analysis to identify the relevant factors.
- Model development: Based on the analysis carried out, a study is jointly initiated and a corresponding model is developed to carry out the measurement system analysis.
- Uncertainty budget: Before drawing up the measurement uncertainty budget, we discuss the measurement uncertainty components. The measurement data is then recorded and the measurement uncertainty is calculated.
- Proof of suitability: The suitability/capability of the measurement system is determined on the basis of the measurement uncertainty and the requirements of the applicable standards and guidelines. If the measuring system is suitable/capable, the documentation is finalized by our experts and made available to you.
- Optimization: If the result is negative, we will work together to optimize your process right from the start in order to achieve standard-compliant results.
Your advantage: Our expertise
- Conformity of products to AIAG and VDA Volume 5 standards
- Quality improvement through optimization of your testing processes
- High product safety
- Establishment of protective distances to avoid pseudo rejects
