Destructive Testing
• Since parts are destroyed during test and test-retest on the same part by
the same operator is no longer possible, this is also known as Non-
replicable measurement system
• Important:
1. Select Measurement
System
• # dependent on type
3. Collect Samples Outputs of test
4. Prepare Measurement
Data Sheet
5. Perform MSA
Study
An engineer wants to monitor the impact strength of ceramic components. The engineer selects 10
groups of samples that represent the expected range of the process variation with 6 samples from
each group (close enough property) and gives 10X2 samples to each operators. The 3 operators
measure a total of 60 measurements.
Note: Each part (sample) is unique to operator; no 2 operators measured the same part.
Because the measurements are nested within operator, the engineer performs a nested gage R&R
study to assess the variability in measurements that may be due to the measurement system.
• NDC = 5 (Acceptable)
Nested GR&R – Example (Graphical Analysis)
Three operators each measured 10 different parts from 5 different groups which cover the
range of measurement interest), a total of 30 measurements. Each part is unique to each
operator; no two operators measured the same part. A gage R&R study (nested) is conducted
to determine how much of your observed process variation is due to measurement system
variation .
