9:00 a.m. Capability Indices – Are They Capable?—Bob Doering, Welser Profile
Customers have forced onto their suppliers the classic Ppk and Cpk capability requirements, yet few understand the limited application or meaning of these indices. Many automotive customers are oblivious to the limitations specified in their own AIAG manuals. Stop, take a breath and discover what is really going on with capability indices. Find out what their value, if any, really is. This presentation includes case studies concerning capability analysis of non-normal characteristics.

1:00 p.m. The Mysteries and Miseries of Gage R&R – A Peek Behind the Curtain—Bob Doering, Welser Profile
For years, many people have believed that there is black magic in the old Gage R&R that will proclaim if a gage is “good enough” or not. The truth is, there is more to it than a plug-and-chug test. Proper preparation and execution, along with some process knowledge, goes a long way to meaningful results. Should you “mark parts?” What variation should the parts have? Should you do Gage R&R annually? What does Gage R&R tell you, and what does it not tell you? This presentation unravels the knot of Gage R&R!
2:00 p.m. Roundtable Discussion
4:00 p.m. Closing Remarks/Adjourn
