I am a little new to the quality world but I am learning so bear with me as I display my ignorance on this topic...
We are a small to mid size single plant company that produces various steel sheet metal parts. We create attribute hand held gages and GD&T checking fixtures for all of the product that we produce. Our process does not allow us the luxary of creating the necessary range of product to satisfy the AIAG handbook guidelines for a gage R&R study. I have replaced the person that would have been responsible for this work so there is know real athority in house for me to receive any guidance from. The instruction that I have been give is to use 10 parts and with one of the 10 parts being bad and have 3 different operators try to find the bad part 3 times consecutively. This does not seem to coincide with the spirit of the process.
My proposal was to clamp the part onto the gage on the CMM and define with variable data the consistancy of the gage.
What are your thoughts on this??
