Building Support for FMEA with Fred Schenkelberg

We’re glad to have Fred Schenkelberg from the Accendo Reliability website joining us. He hosts the Speaking of Reliability podcast and even does reliability webinars. Fred also has articles and helps create online courses on Accendo. He’s well versed in the product development space of reliability engineering. But among the tools used, he’ll give us an in-depth look into gaining support for FMEAs.

Fred will give us insight on:

  • Are organizations willing to give up their resources?
  • What can you do to gain support for FMEAs?
  • Top points for building support for FMEAs

… and so much more!

How to Learn from Failures with Fred Schenkelberg

No matter how good you are at your job, there are always failures in the systems because of some reason. You can’t stop all of them but you can learn from them. There is always something to learn when a failure occurs. Whether it is finding the root cause or devising a solution to prevent it in the future. What happens in the industry that we forget what failures occurred in the last few years?—over the time. This is something that is alarming. It is your job to remember or communicate with those who might. That is how you can better assess the nature and root cause of the failure.

Making FMEAs Work with Fred Schenkelberg

In most of the organizations, Failure Modes and Effect Analysis, is taken as a light exercise where people come, argue, and leave without learning a single thing of value for their company. There is a lot going on when you are in need of FMEA because unless your equipment is failing, downtime is increasing, and you are losing big cash, why would you even bother to do FMEA right? Well, there is the answer why FMEA workshops lead to nothing knowledgeable in the organizations. FMEA is a very useful tool for you to know the causes of equipment failure and the steps you can take to prevent it from happening again.

09 – The 4 Pitfalls of OEM Recommendations

The 4 Pitfalls of OEM Recommendations

This episode of the weekly podcast covers the 4 Pitfalls of OEM Recommendations.

The original equipment manufacturers provide a manual in which all the general instructions are provided in the form of an operating manual.

These can be helpful when someone is using the equipment for the first time but when the same apparatus has to be used in reputed organizations with a set-up of their own, this manual is not enough.

It is developed keeping in mind the general behavior of instruments and common environmental condition of workshops and laboratories.

Most of the times, manufacturers put together these recommendations considering the worst that can go wrong to cover their warranty policies.

That is why the organizations cannot rely only on this operating manual.

You arrive in the office early Monday morning, and you receive an email from your boss.  It is one that you have been dreaded for days.

You have been told that you are participating in a Failure Mode Effect Analysis for the next week.

Failure Mode Effect Analysis is often feared and avoided by many.  Mainly because they are not well understood or people have been forced to sit through FMEAs that were not facilitated properly.

06 – What is a FMEA and How Can It Help?

What is an FMEA and How Can It Help?

Failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) is a step-by-step approach for identifying all possible failures in a design, a manufacturing or assembly process.

“Failure modes” means the ways, or modes, in which something might fail.

Failures are any errors or defects, especially ones that affect the customer and can be potential or actual.  They typically include the component, the damage or problem with it and the cause of it

“Effects analysis” refers to studying the consequences of those failures.
