- Gauge R&R as % of Study Variation = 5.2776572814003
Engineering Interpretation:
Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Gauge R&R as % of Study Variation = 5.2776572814003 %.
The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from deterministically validated test cases.
Formula / Method
gauge r&r as % of study variation = (5.15 * average of subgroup ranges / d2 * sqrt((number of operators * number of parts * number of replicates per part-operator) / (number of operators * number of parts * (number of replicates per part-operator - 1) + number of operators * (number of parts - 1) + (number of parts - 1)))) / 6*sigma_study * 100Formula family: formula_quality_gauge_rr_study_variation_calculator_xbar_r_method
