Hey,
What what is the correct calculation for UCL and LCL on an average chart for a Gage R&R. I’m fairly new to doing these studies and need a little help. I thought that the standard SD would work but it seems that the control limits on these charts are much tighter, and the goal is to have points outside of these limits. I gather it’s a test to see normal random variation from part to part.0October 22, 2007 at 7:16 pm #163498Dave,
The control limits in the average chart are set by the standard formula:
CL=Xbarbar +/- (A2*Rbar)
Remember that the resulting space between the LCL and UCL is a reflection of the variation that we expect from the measurement process and then we add part-to-part variation on top of this ideal estimate of measurement variation.

I know this is a silly question and I probably should know, but what is A2?0October 22, 2007 at 8:35 pm #163501Dave,
Not silly at all. A2 is a control chart constant that is impacted by the rational subgroup size that you use in the creation of the control chart. It is capturing numerous terms (e.g. 3, d2, ãn) from the following:
Ê +/- 3Ð
Xbar +/- 3 Ŝxbar
ãn
Xbar +/- 3 Rbar 1
d2 ãn
Xbar +/- A2* Rbar
Hope that helps with where it came fromc

Not good this is suppose to be the sqrt of n=ãn
Ê=mu
Ð=sigma
I would have thought it would have converted from Word better….0October 22, 2007 at 9:27 pm #163505Ahh its one of those tables you gotta look up in the MSA book ;0) just needed the direction thanks a bunch, I assume if I use 10 Parts, 3 appraisers, and 3 iterations the subgroupsize is 3, therefore the A2 value I need to use is 1.023.

0October 22, 2007 at 9:37 pm #163507Yes, I probably should crack that book open a little more than I do currently, thanks Erik
