About Gage R&R Training


Who is Gage R&R Training for?

Gage R&R Training is for anybody who wants to make sure the quality of their decisions isn't being harmed by bad data. In our course, Grand Rapids students learn:

Gage R&R Training Course Overview:

Gage R&R training is the standard Six Sigma Black Belt measurement system analysis tool assuring Grand Rapids students' decisions are made from valid data. R&R stand for repeatability and reproducability; basically making sure measurement systems are valid beyond what can be detected through simple calibration. All calibration finds is bias away from a standard; it's not enough. Never assume your gage is good just because it's calibrated. We've seen companies waste 5-digit figures on incapable gages, and 6-digit figures scrapping good parts because of too much error in their measurement system. Remember, a measurement system includes its user and the process of using the gage. This is often where excessive error resides. To save you the cost of Minitab or SigmaXL, our Gage R&R training includes an Excel spreadsheet to crunch the numbers. Last time we checked, single licenses for Minitab and SigmaXL were $1,795 and $299 respectively. So, this class pays for itself just by including our spreadsheet.

Grand Rapids

Furniture City

Excellent choice! Grand Rapids in on the Grand River 30 miles east of Lake Michigan. It began as a trading post dealing mostly in furs. A federal survey office was established. A hydro-electric generator was built. Gypsum was mined. Fluoride was added to city water. Bridges were built. And logs milling flourished which spawned furniture manufacturing. Grand Rapids has since been selected for Ford's City of Tomorrow Challenge. If you're seeking fun things to do after Gage R&R Training, the city is known for the Frederik Meijer Gardens, Gerald Ford Museum.

MBBC's instructor is a true gem in the industry! Not only was he engaging (no one fell asleep, that really says something), his industry knowledge is current and even surpasses the industry standards for accuracy, clarity, and understanding in the GD&T space. From this course, I discovered how much GD&T exposure I have had as a Biomedical Engineer working in Quality, and it also gave me the framework I need to finally move into design and product development. I am looking forward to taking more courses with MBB Consulting.

I had the pleasure of working with our Master Black Belt in a high-tech manufacturing company where formal continuous improvement was a new concept. I was impressed with his ability to translate the concepts and skills needed to start down the path of the discipline in a way that was not only accessible to the employees, but excited them and moved many of them into being active, positive participants. I saw an immediate improvement in overall engagement, which helped in areas well beyond the tactical and functional areas included in the improvement project, itself.
