Gage Repeatability and Reproducibility (GRR) study is conducted to investigate the performance of a measurement process whether it is in a stable condition or not. The Repeatability determines the variation within-appraiser and within-measurement-system while the Reproducibility determines the variation between appraisers and between measurement systems. This study included gage potential study and short-term gage capability study. The aim of this study is to examine the capabilities of the electronic digital vernier caliper, digital pocket scale, and appraisers. The data of potential study and short-term study were collected and analyzed via Excel Spreadsheets of GRR potential study and short- term study by using Microsoft Excel. The results obtained by the potential study determined if both of the measuring devices have the potential to be capable in the long term. The results from the short-term study determined that the measurement process operating in a controlled condition over a relatively short period time.
