Gage Tech™ is a measurement system validation tool that calculates Gage Repeatability and Reproducibility (Gage R&R) for ISO9000, QS9000, and other quality systems. This program follows the recommended analysis by the AIAG group, using the X bar and R (average and range) statistical method.  It includes easy tabs for setup, data input, data check, report, and charts.

This version of Gage Tech™ is geared to the engineer and/or single user of the program.  All data is stored on the individual's device and is backed up on the PC during  HotSync®.  Gage Tech Professional™ (coming soon) will address the needs of the multi-user.

The advantage of Gage Tech™ over common PC programs is the portability of your Palm handheld device.  With the program you can enter your data using standard methods and get a good feel for the results RIGHT ON LOCATION.  It performs the calculations, excuding out-of-limit data automatically, and provides numerical and graphical data so that you know immediately if your measurement setup will work.  Using the program, you can run your trials, find problems with your setup, tweak the setup, and run the trials again.  It saves costly setup time and money because you do not have to return to your PC every time to verify your results.

Gage Tech™ is a Palm Powered Solution(TM).
