Managing Design Risk using the Design FMEA
Managing Design Risk using the Design FMEA
Because of its name, "Design Failure Modes and Effects Analysis" many people see the main objective of the Design FMEA is to define all the products failure modes. They don't understand that the Design FMEA is a tool used to determine the residual risk of the design so a determination can be made on whether or not to release the design to manufacturing.
