FMEA Excellence: Part 1

FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) is an analytical methodology used to ensure that potential problems have been considered and addressed throughout the product and process development process (APQP).  Each FMEA should ensure that attention is given to every component within the product or assembly, where critical and safety-related components or processes should be given a higher priority. The focus of this webinar is DFMEA (Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis). DFMEA helps to detect failures at the earliest possible moment so they can be corrected early, without significant cost.

PMC offers FMEA Training that covers APQP to FMEA linkage, Inputs from APQP to PFMEA & Process Flow Diagram, Developing a Process FMEA, and PFMEA to Control Plan Linkage along with its applications to manufacturing.

FMEA is meant to be a “before-the-event” action not an “after-the-fact” exercise, even though Design and Process FMEAs are the most commonly used ones, the six FMEAs are;

• Design FMEA
• Process FMEA
• Concept FMEA
• System FMEA
• Process Concept FMEA
• Machine FMEA

 

 

The Automotive Quality Core Tools, also known as Quality Core Tools or just simply Core Tools are key pillars of an effective quality management system. Over 30 years ago, AIAG (Automotive Industry Action Group) and ASQ (American Society of Quality) collaborated with the domestic automotive manufacturer’s Ford, GM, and Chrysler (now FCA) to establish collective quality methods and tools, which became known as the Quality Core Tools. Other manufacturing sectors including aerospace, defense, medical, consumer products, transportation, and pharmaceutical adapted these tools over time.

Most automotive manufacturers and suppliers require the use of one or more of the Core Tools. Therefore, organizations whose employees have mastered the Core Tool processes can assure their customers that the industry’s most qualified individuals are working on their behalf and that IATF 16949 and applicable quality reference manual requirements will be met without fail.

PMC offers Core Tools Training that covers all tools including Advanced Product Quality Planning & Control Plan (APQP), Production Part Approval Process (PPAP), Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), Statistical Process Control (SPC), and Measurement System Analysis (MSA) or provides training for each tool individually. https://bit.ly/3ixCF5j

Additional PMC Quality Services:

Operational Excellence –  The execution of the business strategy more consistently and reliably than the competition and it is evidenced by results. Operational Excellence integrates management philosophies and methodologies to reach Excellence. However, most of its drivers are based on earlier continuous improvement methodologies, such as Lean Thinking, Six Sigma, and Scientific Management.
