AIAG-VDA FMEA Training

Define the scope early by clarifying inclusions, exclusions, roles, and a project plan, using boundary and parameter diagrams to guide fmea and dfm planning.

Perform structural analysis, the second step of the new FMEA, by breaking a design into systems, subsystems, and components, using the boundary diagram and structure tree to map interfaces.

Understand functional analysis in FMEA, mapping customer and stakeholder requirements to system elements using the parameter diagram and functional analysis diagram, with input, outputs, and measurable parameters.

Explore how FMEA identifies potential failure modes, effects, and causes. Learn how current controls, preventive measures, root cause analysis, and cause-and-effect diagrams prioritize risks and support proactive improvement.

Explore the fourth step of fmea: failure analysis, focusing on failure effects and causes for the starter motor system, linking function to structure and cascading across levels.

Learn the fifth step of FMEA: perform risk analysis using action priority instead of RPN, rating severity, occurrence, and detection using historic data, product experience, and prevention and detection controls.

Explore the sixth and seventh steps of the new FMEA: optimization and results, assigning actions, tracking five status types, and documenting prevention and detection actions for management communication.

Explore the new PFMEA template and its seven steps, emphasizing process planning, structure and functional analyses, process flow diagrams, and focus elements with 4–6 M's for comprehensive failure analysis.

Map failure modes to functional analysis to assess effects, causes, and costs, then analyze risks with preventive and detection controls, SOPs, and end-line testing in PFMEA Part II.

Explore PFMEA Part III, detailing rating scales for severity, occurrence, and detection, how process experience and preventive controls influence action priority, and optimization through preventive and detective actions.

Explore fmea msr, a supplemental fmea that adds monitoring and system response analysis within the design fmea framework for mechatronics and IoT, illustrated by a keyless entry system.
