Non-binding VDA recommendation


The Association of the German Automotive Industry (VDA) recommends its members
to apply the following guidelines for the implementation and maintenance of quality
management systems.

Exclusion of Liability
This VDA volume is a recommendation that is freely available for general use. Anyone
who implements it is responsible for ensuring that it is used correctly in each case.

This VDA volume takes into account state of the art technology, current at the time of
issue. Implementation of VDA recommendations relieves no one of responsibility for
their own actions. In this respect, everyone acts at their own risk.

Foreword 05

Foreword
After more than a decade, the time has come for a fundamental revision of one of the
standard works on measurement and inspection process capability. The focus when
drawing up this 3rd edition of VDA Volume 5, with its new title “Measurement and In-
spection Processes, Capability, Planning and Management”, was on comprehensibility
of methodology in order to achieve better applicability for the user in practice. The VDA
Volume 5 has been completely revised and updated with all the change notices com-
piled in the VDA QMC since 2011. The revision incorporates the latest changes related
to standards and technical development.

One of the innovations in VDA Volume 5 is the division of topics into a main volume and
a practical handbook. The main volume gives users technical guidance and orientation
in the procedure. The practical handbook shows practical implementation of the topic
from the main volume using examples and use cases. Logic has been implemented in
the inspection planning method so that the contents are taken into account right at the
beginning of the product development process. The measurement and inspection pro-
cess capability thus acts as a systems engineering tool for verification and validation in
the early phase of the project. At the same time, for the first time, a connection and
consistency to the adjacent processes inspection equipment management, inspection
planning and inspection process management (including the defined roles) was ap-
plied. The risk-based approach is appropriately and efficiently embedded in the inspec-
tion process management, offers specific assistance in selecting the procedure to back
up audit decisions and allows a differentiated approach while being mindful of econom-
ic requirements. The idea behind VDA Volume 5 is to provide as complete an overview
as possible of the handling of proof of capability for measurement processes.

The 3rd edition has been amended in the following aspects:

• Clarification of terms and definitions closely following VIM [2] and ISO 3534-1 [11]
• Process transparency from the engineering of the measuring system to the capabil-
ity of the measurement and inspection processes
• Strategies for harmonization with the AIAG Core Tool MSA (4th Edition) [1]
• Recommendations for the procurement of measuring systems (for example, specifi-
cations)
• Transferability of proof of capability
• Handling of unsuitable measuring systems/processes
• Handling of fine tolerancesDokument

06 Foreword

• Procedure for insufficient sample sizes in the “measuring system” and “measure-
ment process” trials.
• Procedure for small pre-series and production lots in development and production
• Consideration and monitoring of the ongoing capability using stability measure-
ments

The measurement uncertainty calculation methods have been largely left unchanged,
down to the index adjustments and linearity calculations. Calculations for fine toleranc-
es, one-sided tolerances and attribute calculation methods have been added.

It is necessary to comply with specified tolerances of individual parts and assemblies


to guarantee the function of technical systems. According to ISO 8015 [34], it is as-
sumed that the tolerance limits correspond to the functional limits when defining the
required tolerances in the design process.

Inspection process capability is more than just the release of the inspection equipment,
it also includes the handling of measurement uncertainty in product and manufacturing
design. A comprehensive measurement result consists of a determined measured val-
ue and a measurement uncertainty in the measurement process. In the area of toler-
ance limits, no reliable statement can be made about compliance or non-compliance
with the tolerances due to the measurement uncertainty. This can lead to incorrect
evaluations of measurement results. Different standards and guidelines contain re-
quirements for estimating and considering the measurement uncertainty. For this rea-
son, both the measuring system and measurement process uncertainty must be taken
into account as early as the planning stage of measurement processes. In this respect,
companies must address various questions in implementing and certifying their quality
management system. This document shows how to meet these many demands. The
procedures described here are based on ISO/IEC Guide 98-3 (2008-09) [31] and DIN
EN ISO 14253-1 [20].

The topic of conformity according to DIN EN ISO 14253-1 [20] cannot be comprehen-
sively represented with conventional methods of measuring system analysis. Some
important reasons for this are that certain influencing quantities such as calibration
uncertainty, quality of the setting standards, error limits and temperature effects were
not sufficiently catered for. Furthermore, known methods of measuring system analysis
are used only to assess individual components separately, but not the entire inspection
process. With the proof of capability method for measurement and inspection process-
es, this latest edition of VDA Volume 5 offers a practical, standard-compliant solution.

Even a comparison of the headings of the old and new requirements of DIN EN ISO
9001 [16] reveals significant differences. To date, the “control of monitoring and meas-
uring equipment” has been sufficient. On the other hand, DIN EN ISO 9001 [16] has
been referring to “resources for monitoring and

shows that it is not, as has been in the past, only about the monitoring and measuring
equipment, but about all necessary resources too, from spatial conditions, appropriate-
ly trained personnel, suitable inspection equipment, the measuring equipment including
software, to the necessary auxiliary devices and methods that are involved in the for-
mation of valid and reliable monitoring and measurement results. All of this must serve
the purpose of conformity of products and, more recently, also of services, i.e. it must
be ensured that only assured quality is delivered to the customer.

1 Standards and guidelines


Relevant standards and guidelines for quality management require knowledge of the
measurement uncertainty or proof of the capability of the measuring system or meas-
urement process, often also called capability. Requirements for measurement and in-
spection processes are contained in the documents listed in Table 1-1 as examples.

VDA Volume 5 aims to combine the requirements and procedures of the existing stand-
ards and guidelines to gain a standardized and practical procedure for determining and
consideration of the extended measurement uncertainty. If necessary, the methods of
capability analysis (see MSA [1] and company standards) established in practice are inte-
grated. Appropriate answers are given to typical problems regarding the determination of
standard uncertainties as well as the extended measurement uncertainty Table 6-1.
