Just a Sample Opinion

We don’t always have the luxury of measuring an entire population, so we take samples. For good or for bad, there is plenty of advice when it comes to sampling. Sir R. A. Fisher said that if all the elements in your population are identical, you need only a sample size of one. John Tukey [...]

All Experiments are Designed Experiments

One of the perks of my job is that I get to poke at a lot of datasets from customers and prospective customers. PCM/WAT, wafer sort, final test, other production datasets, and all sorts of engineering datasets (gauge R&R, repeatability experiments, and on and on). It’s no surprise that one of the themes we see [...]

Common Guidelines for Gauge R&R Metrics

There’s an old saying that history repeats itself. Someone long ago modified that to, “History repeats itself; historians repeat each other.” When it comes to guidelines for gauge r&r studies, there’s a lot of repetition going on. Search for information about gauge r&r studies online and you’ll find a lot of material merely referencing other [...]
