Development to High-Volume Manufacturing: Reducing the Risks
Abstract
Process problems that are detected during the development process can be corrected relatively inexpensively. However, process problems that are transferred to manufacturing for high-volume production can be extremely expensive to correct. Failure Modes and Effect Analysis is a tool which identifies potential failure modes, the effect(s) of the failure mode, and quantifies risks. FMEA has not achieved its potential as a risk-management tool in many industries. This paper discusses common errors in performing Failure Modes and Effects Analysis as well as techniques for improving its use by integrating commonly available statistical methods.
