Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) Training

in house, 2 days
 
Training’s goal: 
Through this FMEA  training– Failure Mode and Effect Analysis, EXEGENS® provides you the approach of the breakdowns in the system. FMEA is an engineering technique used to define, identify and remove the breakdowns from the system, the potential and/ or known errors or problems. FMEA direction is to design processes so that customers are not affected.
All standards of Advanced Product Quality Planning provide structured methods for defining and establishing the steps necessary to ensure that the product meets the requirements of the customers. The Control Plans helps products quality  being consistent with customer requirements and apriori standards. The Control Plans provide the  structural approach for design, selection and implementation of control methods for the added value in the whole system. A company that targets at a high level of quality must use FMEA in the Advanced Quality Planning Processes and in the development of their control plans.
Through this FMEA training it is presented the main objective which is the addressing ways in which a product or a process can "collapse". A "fall" of a product or a process is when this can not work as default. In the real life of the companies there are a multitude of "opportunities" for the system to "collapse".
FMEA is a group of activities designed to:
- Recognize and assess the potential "fall" of the products or processes and its effects;
- Identify actions that could eliminate or reduce potential "fall";
- Document the processes.
 
Summary of the training session:
Day I
1) What is FMEA? Origin. Purpose of FMEA. Connexions. FMEA Worksheet.  Types of FMEA. Advantages and disadvantages of FMEA. FMEA team. FMEA in 10 steps.
2) Introduction to Design FMEA (DFMEA). Purpose of DFMEA (Boundary Diagram, Interface Matrix, P-diagram). Function DFMEA. Failure modes DFMEA. Severity. Analysis of DFMEAfailure causes. Occurrence DFMEA. DFMEA Control. Risk Priority Number (RPN).
3) Process FMEA (PFMEA). Process FMEA Form. Purpose of PFMEA (Process flow MACRO&MICRO). Characteristic Matrix (connexion between DFMEA and PFMEA). Function PFMEA (identifying functions / process needs, examples). Failure modes PFMEA (identify the failure modes, the list of effects).

Day II
3) Severity (Ranking table, classification, actions). Analysis of the PFMEA failure modes (Ishikawa Diagram, Why questions, Brainstorming, example).
4) Occurrence PFMEA (how to identify, ranking table, classification, actions). PFMEA Control (prevention / detection, ranking tables, classification, actions). Risk Priority Number (RPN) and identify actions to be taken. PFMEA outputs.
Case studies.  
5) From DFMEA and PFMEA to Control Plan and Work Instructions (description of Control Plan); discuss PFMEA/DFMEA Checklist.
6) Mistake Proofing – Poka Yoke - 2 example (detection / prevention);
Statistical Process Control – SPC;
Design of Experiments - DOE;  
Problem Solving - A3;
Free Discutions;
Video Example.
 
Who should attend: maintenance engineers, industrial engineers, process engineers, department managers, operators.
 

Have your say about the FMEA Training:

 
"(...) The consultancy program of EXEGENS® (FMEA / KAIZEN - training and workshop for a specific problem) was a good opportunity to increase the previous knowledge with the continuous process to improve the internal activities by combining the theory with practical applications taken from our production process. The consultancy program satisfied our expectations in initiation this way of working (FMEA / KAIZEN). " (Mircea ROTARU, Quality Manager WATTEEUW ROMANIA)

"The FMEA / KAIZEN training is well structured, organized and documented. It presents applicable techniques to obtain consistent improvements. It pulls the alarm signals about what we have now and what we might improve." (Iulian NISTOR, B.U. Manager CASE NEW HOLLAND)
