The EMP (Evaluating the Measurement Process) method in the Measurement Systems Analysis platform is largely based on the methods presented in Donald J. Wheeler’s book EMP III Using Imperfect Data (2006). The EMP method provides visual information and results that are easy to interpret and helps you improve your measurement system to its full potential.
The Gauge R&R method analyzes how much of the variability is due to operator variation (reproducibility) and measurement variation (repeatability). Gauge R&R is available for many combinations of crossed and nested models, regardless of whether the model is balanced. For more information, see the Variability Gauge Charts topic.
