Failure Modes and Effects Analysis & PM Optimization
PM Optimization and FMEA are excellent techniques to develop effective maintenance tasking on critical assets.
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis is a very effective problem-solving tool for the reduction of risk and failure prevention in design, process, and continuous improvement activities. PMO then guides you to the best actions for improved MTBF. This course will give you a working knowledge of the FMEA and PMO process as it is applied, and will reduce your company’s risk of costly mistakes.
In addition to course material, participants will use (in class and training center) exercises to learn how to recognize potential failure risks and develop mitigating strategies.
Who should attend?
This course is intended for anyone (trades/technicians/engineers/managers) interested in reducing the risk of product and process failures, including those in the fields of reliability, manufacturing, quality, design/development engineering, and safety. Teams are encouraged to attend!
Benefits of conducting an effective FMEA and PM Optimization:
- Improvements in products/process quality, reliability, and safety
- Increased overall equipment effectiveness (OEE)
- Increase uptime and MTFB
- Early detection and elimination of product/process failure modes
- Eliminate or imporve non-value-added PM's (typically eliminating over 30% of existing PM's)
Course Takeaways:
- Working knowledge of the 10 steps required to perform an FMEA
- An understanding of how FMEA fits into your improvement “tool kit” (RCM, RCA, VSM, etc)
- How to use an FMEA to develop R&M Strategies and to optimize PM's
- The ability to conduct and participate in the FMEA process – proactively to prevent failures
- How to select the best failure avoidance strategy using PM Optimization
Included:
The Basics of FMEA,
