Abstract:
Capability assessment of the measurement device is one of the methods of process quality control. Only in case the
measurement device is capable, the capability of the measurement and consequently produc on process can be as‐
sessed. This paper deals with assessment of the capability of the measuring device using indices Cg and Cgk.
Key words: measuring device, index Cg and Cgk.

Measuring devices (means) are in general understood
as technical means needed for measurement realiza on. Fig. 1 Skewness and conformity of measurement
