Fails: Gage R&R

In light of a gage R&R that will fail (will post the results when complete) on a $4K that someone in my company decided to purchase without the input of Quality, what has been the worst Gage R&R results you have seen from a gage?

  • At my last shop, we had to do an R&R on telescoping gages on a through hole that was made with a hot pierce punch. I want to say that the results were in the 50-60% range every time. Management said we had to do it annually. Every year it would fail, we would create a corrective action, the result was that it was not even a reliable way of measuring said feature, and we would do it all again next year.
