Failure Mode & Effects Analysis For Manufacturing Processes, Assembly Processes & Service (Process FMEA)

Introduction:

This course introduces participants to the analytical process in which potential failure modes, failure effects and causes of failure are identified. Criticality and risk analysis concepts are also covered for dealing with the effects of failure. Analysis is used to identify corrective actions that may be used to eliminate failure modes or minimize the effect of failure. Additionally, the analysis may be used to identify controls necessary to prevent failure occurrence.

Duration: 2 Days
 
Target Audience:

Personnel directly involved with manufacturing, assembly and service processes.
 
Programme Objectives:

At the end of the course, participants will be able to:

• List the benefits, requirements and objectives of an FMEA
• Explain the steps and methodology used to analyze a Process FMEA
• Compare a variety of tools utilized when performing an FMEA
• Identify corrective actions or controls and their importance in minimizing or preventing failure occurrence
