DFMEA - Design Failure Mode & Effects Analysis
TRAINING PROGRAMME RESUMÉ
The objective of this course is to introduce the DFMEA as a disciplined, prevention oriented, analytical technique that assesses the probability and effect of failure for the purpose of reducing the risk. This course contributes to taking the candidate beyond the fear of FMEA and to get him/her to a confident position.
The training technique of this course is “Teach/Do”. It is heavily oriented towards practical participation. Candidates are required to have stamina and staying power. It is not all sit and listen. It is embedding by experience.
Firstly, the candidate will learn the relationship between the Process Flow Diagram, Process Flow Chart, Floor Plan, FMEA and Control Plan and their role in the Supplier Quality Improvement Process and Production Part Approval Process. Secondly, they will be familiarised with the QS9000 FMEA manual and how to use it for FMEA sessions. Thirdly, this course mostly consists of the practical co-ordination of a FMEA session using a real, live example/product hence putting the candidate in contact with as near a real example as possible.
Depending on the complexity of the practical example used, this course may require additional time.
Fourthly, every candidate will be placed in a co-ordinator position thus exposing him/her to the pressures of contrasting opinions and how to control participants.
On completing this course the candidate should have a clear understanding and appreciation of PFMEA, will be able to participate in a meaningful and effective manner in PFMEA sessions and, should be able to co-ordinate PFMEA sessions with some confidence.
PFMEA - Process Failure Mode & Effects Analysis
TRAINING PROGRAMME RESUMÉ
The objective of this course is to introduce the PFMEA as a disciplined, prevention oriented, analytical technique that assesses the probability and effect of failure for the purpose of reducing the risk. This course contributes to taking the candidate beyond the fear of FMEA and to get him/her to a confident position.
The training technique of this course is “Teach/Do”. It is heavily oriented towards practical participation. Candidates are required to have stamina and staying power. It is not all sit and listen. It is embedding by experience.
Firstly. the relationship between the Process Flow Diagram, Process Flow Chart, Floor Plan, FMEA, Control Plan and their role in the Supplier Quality Improvement Process and Production Part Approval Process will be explained. To pave the way for a good PFMEA, the candidates will firstly learn how to define the Process Flow. The candidates will then be given a detailed explanation on how to go about the PFMEA. The process Flow steps are each interrogated using record points: Failure Modes, Effects, Severity, Causes, Probability, Reactive & Preventive Controls and their chance of success. The technique of calculating the RPN is deliberately thoroughly covered and emphasized. This exercise includes reference to the QS9000 FMEA 3rd Edition manual.
Prioritization techniques and Risk Reduction methodology is also covered.
On completion of the PFMEA, and as a natural follow on, the candidates will be given a detailed explanation on how to go about the Process Control Plan and a guidance will be given towards the creation of Control Instructions for the process operators.
This course mostly consists of the practical co-ordination of a FMEA session using a real, live example/product hence putting the candidate in contact with as near a real example as possible. Depending on the complexity of the practical example used, this course may require additional time. Every candidate will be placed in a co-ordinator role thus exposing him/her to the pressures of contrasting opinions and how to control participants during PFMEA sessions.
On completing this course the candidate should have a clear understanding and appreciation of PFMEA, how to create it, should be able to participate in a meaningful and effective manner in PFMEA sessions and, should be able to co-ordinate PFMEA sessions with some confidence. |
