Measurement Systems Analysis (MSA) - Basic Level

The training introduces participants to the fundamental principles of measurement systems analysis, which are the basis for effective quality control in manufacturing processes. During the course, participants learn key concepts and methodologies for evaluating measurement systems, starting with basic definitions, through measurement error characteristics, to practical application of analytical methods. The program combines theory and practice through workshops using Minitab, allowing the knowledge gained to be directly translated into real situations in an industrial environment. Particular emphasis is placed on understanding the sources of variation in measurements and methods for identifying and controlling them.
