As early as the phase of the product and production process approval in new product developments, you are being asked to provide evidence of gage capability tests for those gages that are being used in series production. In addition to the convenient gage management that Babtec CAQ offers, the gage capability test (PMFU) provides proof for a gage or inspection system that it is suitable under real operating conditions for a specific measurement task with predefined tolerance.

The convenient wizard of BabtecPMFU guarantees the secure and complete data recording of all relevant key data which you require for the correct execution of your gage capability tests. Reduce the effort for gage capability tests and considerations of measurement uncertainty while determining inspection process suitability based on predefined and standardized processes according to the applicable AIAG and VDA guidelines (MSA, VDA volume 5). The assessment of the capability according to the applied process is done automatically and immediately after the conclusion of the inspection based on the results entered.

BabtecPMFU provides support for meeting the requirements with reference to the gage capability test using standards-compliant base processes:

• Procedure for attributive inspection processes
• Cg processes
• R&R processes with tester interaction
• R&R processes without tester interaction

In addition processes for considerations of measurement uncertainty in the context of the inspection process suitability according to VDA 5 are available. On the basis of the supplied PMFU processes and calculation methods, it is possible to derive company-specific processes to represent new customer-specific guidelines.
