1. How the sample fit template works

You can use our sample fit template to monitor spec differences during sample fit rounds.

When you use a template it automatically extracts the following information from your Measurements table:

•  Names of your Measurement Cards
•  Your upper tolerance limits TOL(+)
•  Your lower tolerance limits TOL(-)
•  Your sample sizes and list them all in a table.

You then simply enter your fit sample measurements under the  FIT column and the table will auto-calculate and highlight differences based on your sample size and your tolerance range.

 

Note:

 

• The default formula in place is New fit sample spec - original sample size = DIFF
• If the difference between your fit sample measurement and your sample size falls outside of your tolerance range, the cell will turn RED.

2. How to create a sample fit section

 

⚠️ PREREQUISITE 

Before creating a sample fit section - 

☑ Make sure to add some point of measurements cards in your measurements table.

☑ In your Measurements table, make sure to add values in both TOL(+) & TOL(-) columns. IMPORTANT: Values in TOL(-) should be preceded by the minus symbol (-) like -1 -1/2 etc..

 

 

Step 1: In your Cards Board, list all your point of measurements in your  Measurements section.

 

Step 2: Click on  New section at the bottom of your Cards Board.

 

Step 3: A window will appear featuring different custom section types. Select Fit and click + Create at the bottom of the dialogue.

 

 

Step 4: A dialogue window will appear to rename this new section. Type in your new section name here and click Done  

 

 

Once you update the above information, click out of the dialogue and that's it! Your sample fit table will be available on your cards board.

 Enter your 1st Fit specs . The Diff will be automatically calculated for you. And if the specs are outside of the tolerance limit, the cell will be auto-highlighted in red.  

 

 

Step 5: All costing table information is enclosed within a card in this custom section. You can simply name the card (as shown below) or can open the card settings dialogue by clicking the  gear icon to provide details like the card name, description, an image, keywords, or to even add comments.
