Precision ErrorPrecision ErrorRepeatabilityRepeatability

• Repeatability is the variability of the measurements obtained by one person while measuring the same item repeatedly. This is also known as the inherent precision of the measurement equipment.

• Consider the probability density functions shown in Figure 1. The density functions were constructed from measurements of the thickness of a piece of metal with Gage A and Gage B. The density functions demonstrate that Gage B is more repeatable than Gage A.

• Reproducibility is the variability of the measurement system caused by differences in operator behavior. Mathematically, it is the variability of the average values obtained by several operators while measuring the same item.

• Figure 2 displays the probability density functions of the measurements for three operators. The variability of the individual operators are the same, but because each operator has a different bias, the total variability of the measurement system is higher when three operators are used than when one operator is used.

Pressure measurements

• Pressure is defined as the amount of force that presses on a certain area. – The pressure on the surface will increase if you make the force on an area bigger. – Making the area smaller and keeping the force the same also increase the pressure.– Pressure is a scalar
