Process Faliure Mode & Effects Analysis including Control Plans
PFMEA is a methodology for assessing risk, identifying any weaknesses in the
desired outcome of a process and guarding against them prior to committing the
design to the production processes. The Control Plan ensures that the process
conforms to the planned process.
Real benefits are achieved through the successful transfer of data from the
PFMEA into the Control Plan and onward into production documents. The PFMEA
methodology is fundamentally different from Design FMEA and Machinery FMEA and
encompasses the latest thinking including Robustness linkages
These include :
- Interface Matrix
- Function Analysis
- Failure Modes
- Classifications
- Recommended Actions Control Plan
- Practical Application of the Ranking Tables
- Ongoing Maintenance of your Key Production Documents
- Effects of Failure
- Causes of Failure
- Prevention Controls
- Detection Control
- Establishing Priority
- AS DFMEA
- visual Aids, Work Instructions and other Working Documents
The basic objectives of the course are :
-
To ensure participants have a full appreciation of the linkages between Process flow diagram, PFMEA, Control Plan and Production documents
-
To explain the importance of correctly describing the desired outcome of each process step and the relationships between them
-
To identify the requirement to deploy the controls at the point of need
-
To ensure the appropriate usage of reaction planning.
-
To explain the practical requirements for a timely FMEA & Control Plan to maximise the benefit at minimal cost
-
To outline the importance of the recommended actions
-
To assist with the learning the Application Workshop & Facilitated Deployment is conducted on a product of your choice.
The course is available as :
- 1 day Awareness Session
- 3 day Application Workshop
- 8 day Facilitated Deployment
- 8 day Subject Facilitator training
Recommended Attendees
Product Design, Manufacturing, Quality Control, Supplier Liaison personnel
Awareness Session
A 1 Day introduction to Process FMEA & Control Plans. Delegates will have a
Full understanding of the method & documentation from the process flow
diagram through to the production documents and the audit trail.
Application Workshop
On completion the attendee will be able to :
-
Understand the importance of the linkages between Process flow diagram, Process FMEA, Control Plan & Production documents
-
Appreciate the need to understand the linkage between the process steps and the full extent of the benefits that can be reaped through deployment
-
Know how to conduct a Process FMEA
-
Appreciate the challenges faced in the practical deployment of Process FMEA through the Control Plan & Production documents and how to tackle the challenge in a time efficient manner.
Facilitated Deployment
The emphasis of this course, in addition to teaching the
practical application of the methodology, is to continue with the task utilising
the
software to successful completion of the Process FMEA & Control Plans.
Subject Facilitator Training
The emphasis of this course, in addition to teaching the
practical application of the methodology, is to enable the delegates to be
successful Facilitators able to lead Process FMEA & Control Plan teams.
All training is provided conveniently at your own site for up to 10 delegates. All you need to provide is the room, your normal catering & of course the delegates.
