A novel link is presented in this work for the integration of the continuous improvement loop of measurement systems into the statistical quality control of manufacturing processes. The proposal is based on the Index of Contamination of the Capability (ICC) and the Golden Rule of Metrology. It is expressed through clear-cut decision rules that consider the uncertainty of measurement, the intended use of the measurements and the risk of inaccurate measurements. The proposal makes it possible to improve production quality. To facilitate its application, an equivalent graphical approach is provided.engjournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cirp.2012.03.017https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0007850612000194restricted access519.22-7006.91519.243MetrologyQualityControl IntegrationControl Estadístico de la CalidadEstadística aplicada1209 Estadística2214.02 Metrología1203.06 Sistemas Automatizados de Control de Calidad
