Introduction to FMEA

[events_list category=”118″ scope=”all” limit=5 pagination=1 orderby=”event_start_date” order=”desc”]

Introduction

This unique course will provide an executive awareness and understanding of the FMEA tools and processes. You will be able to appreciate the benefits of the FMEA as a preventative quality tool, and comprehend the roles played by FMEA in the manufacturing’s process control system. During the course you will learn about the two types of FMEA, that is Design FMEA and Process FMEA. Design FMEA is developed during the product development phase, and Process FMEA in the manufacturing process development phase.

Course Objectives

Upon completion of this program the participants should be able to:

• Learn about the benefits and objectives of FMEA
• Understand the essence of FMEA through 5W 1H.
• Be aware of the importance of concurrent engineering.
• Describe the different types and levels of FMEA.
• Comprehend the failure mode risk assessment methodologies.
• Understand the interaction between FMEA and the manufacturing process control system.
