If I do Linearity and Bias Studies, are Stability Studies Required?

[samiv]

Hello, this is my first time in this forum.

I have a question for you, I'm a calibration technician, if I do the MSA studies for some equipment such as Linearity and Bias, did I have to do the Stabilty study for this equipment?

Thanks and Regards

Welcome, samiv.

Stability studies are a good idea, but whether or not you have to do them depends on what the specific requirements are. If your company doesn't require them, and your customers don't require them, and there's no standard you use that requires them, then you don't have to do them. Stability is a pretty easy thing to do, and you don't have to generate new data to do it.

Re: Stability studies

Jim is correct, stability studies are usually not mandatory.

To determine whether you should do stability studies, are your gages likely to be influenced by changes in ambient conditions such as temperature or humidity? Are you measuring tight tolerances where the effects of thermal expansion are significant? Will instumentation drift with equipment warmup?
