    Hi Everyone,

    The gage R and R is a bit not intuitive. Can anyone explain how to derive the formula e.g. EV = mean of Range x K1. What is this constant K1 and how to derive that? why do we need to multiply by a constant when we already got the range average?

    Other formulas such as AV too.

    Thank you.

    There is a decent explanation here at a sister forum (see post #10).

    Essentially, K1 = 1/d2. Next, you will probably ask where the unbiasing constant, d2 came from, so refer to this article from Minitab.
