Abstract

The outsourcing in the automotive industry transferred the responsibility to produce products with quality to its supplier and, consequently, the definition and execution of the measurements in the supplied products. However, it is still frequent the occurrence of the conflicts between companies related to divergences in the dimensional tests. This problem is more critical in coordinate metrology, due to the many parameters in the measurement process. This paper describes a methodology developed for the standardization of measurement strategies to be used during the product development and its application in the supply chain of the Brazilian automotive industry.
