Measurement process capability

Capability of the measuring system for a planned measurement task under exclusive consideration of accuracy requirements.

Information: In general, the proof of capability for the measuring system or process is a short-term evaluation. The measurement stability should be determined over a significant period and considered for proof of capability, especially in the case of new measuring systems or measurement processes.
