When there is no measurement error we can
distinguish between good and bad products,
with confidence.

Repeatability and reproducibility
Repeatability:
Can the person producing the measurement
repeat in the future what he/she did in the past?
Reproducibility:
Can a second person reproduce the
measurement made by the first person?

Definitions in the chemical industry C
Reproducibility sd =
[(Repeatability sd)2 + (Between labs sd)2]

Measurement uncertainty C
Since about 1993 analytical chemists have
increasingly used measurement uncertainty to
assess measurement error.

Reproducibility in engineering E
Reproducibility
is
the additional measurement variability
found
when QS9000
the same item is measured repeatedly
with a specific gauge
by
different operators.
15
R&R E
R&R
is
the total measurement variability
found when
the same item is measured repeatedly QS9000
with a specific gauge
by
different operators.
16
Measurement variability E
Measurement variability is defined as the range within
which 99% of the repeat measurements can be
expected to lie.

Calculation of R&R E
Repeatability = 5.15sE
sE = SD of repeat measurements by a typical operator.
Reproducibility = 5.15sA
sA = SD of operator true mean measurements.
R&R = 5.15sT
sT = SD of repeat measurements by different operators.

R&R and product classification E
We can express the R&R as a percentage of the
tolerance.
%R&R = 100*R&R/(USL-LSL)
LSL USL
R&R = 30%

R&R = 10%

A procedure for engineering industry E
Select 10 components.
Ask assessor A to measure each component twice.
Ask assessor B to measure each component twice.
You may wish to use a third assessor.
Chemical definition:
Repeatability is a number that is unlikely to be
exceeded by the difference between two
measurements made under repeatability
conditions.
(Repeatability = 2.82s)
22
Reproducibility differences
Engineering definition:
The additional spread within measurements made
under reproducibility conditions.
Chemical definition:
Reproducibility is a number that is unlikely to be
exceeded by the difference between two
measurements made under reproducibility
conditions.
23
R&R
Engineering definition:
The total spread of measurements made under
reproducibility conditions.
24
Variability
To understand the usefulness of your measurement process
you need to calculate the total variation and break this down
as follows:
Total variation
Operator Operator by
part
interaction

Summary
Repeatability and reproducibility have different
meanings in different industries.
