The research develops measurement processes for estimating and evaluating the gauge R&R(Reproducibility & Repeatability) using ANOVA(Analysis of Variance) of experimental design tools. The ten-step processes developed include experimental goal setting, the selection of characteristics(factors, levels), data model, ANOVA, EMS(Expected Mean Square), estimation of gauge precisions, and evaluation indexes. The three-factor combined measurement models are presented to show the processes developed in this paper.

The research proposes the three-factor random measurement models for estimating the precision about operator, part, tool, and various measurement environments. The combined model with crossed and nested factors is developed to analyze the approximate F test by degrees of freedom given by Satterthwaite and point estimation of precisions from expected mean square. The model developed in this paper can be extended to the three useful models according to the type of nested designs. The study also provides the three-step procedures to evaluate the measurement precisions using three indexes such as SNR(Signal-To-Noise Ratio), R&R TR(Reproducibility&Repeatability-To-Total Precision Ratio), and PTR(Precision-To-Tolerance Ratio), The procedures include the identification of resolution, the improvement of R&R reduction, and the evaluation of precision effect.
