More on Mechanical System HALT

Abstract

Kirk, guest John Paschkewitz, and Fred discussing some of the differences from electronics HALT in applications on mechanical components of a system for reliability development.

Key Points

Join Kirk, John and Fred as they discuss the use of design analysis for tailoring stresses including finite element analysis to help define the HALT stress and potential structural weaknesses. John discusses his experience in HALT testing large and small electric motors, hydraulic systems and some of the common failure mechanisms. John’s experience with mechanical HALT includes shooting a pressure transducer through the roof during one test.

Topics include:

• The use of Design Review Based on Failure Modes (DRBFM) to tailor stresses
• HALT application for electric motors and hydraulics systems
• Finding mechanical HALT limits can be dramatic

Enjoy an episode of Speaking of Reliability. Where you can join friends as they discuss reliability topics. Join us as we discuss topics ranging from design for reliability techniques, to field data analysis approaches.
