Week Two: Group Activity - How accurate are our measurements?
Using Scatter Plots and Trend Analysis to Assess the Measurement Variation.
Link to Carillon Technologies Site - Scatter Plots, Trendlines and Measurement Analysis
Assessment
Perform a measurement analysis on the pasta as outlined at the
Carillon Website Link. Post your results,
(include excel file) to the WebCT Discussion Board along with
your analysis on the appropriateness of the measurement system,
(Is the product variation at least 5 times the measurement variation?)
Address the issues of different operators, different instruments,
different instrument types (micrometers, calipers), and an "operational
definition" of the measurement process.
If the system is not appropriate then post your ideas for improving.
