FMEA Software

In addition to the basic FMEA information, in this step you define the team members and other information for the FMEA form header. At this point, you can attach comments, graphics, and documents, or link block diagrams and process flowcharts within the FMEA Software.

Graphical representation of the FMEA structure, including creation of all necessary structures – you can work with more than three hierarchy levels.

In this step of the FMEA, you can create one or more functions for each system element. For this purpose, the FMEA Software displays the functions of the system element selected in the structure tree as well as the subordinate system elements with their functions. You can then link these elements together via drag & drop.

As with the functional analysis, in this step you define the failures based on the functions and link them together via drag & drop. For this purpose, the software displays the B ratings of the effects and inherits them accordingly. In addition, you can display all failure networks of an FMEA graphically during the failure analysis.

Here you can define both the actual measures as well as the evaluation of the current occurrence and discovery. In addition to the classic attributes, you can add further attributes such as comments, links, etc. In order to evaluate the current status and to move on to the optimization phase in a targeted manner, the software offers a frequency analysis of the AP. This shows the task priorities in a clear graphical form and can therefore also be used as part of a status report.

For the optimization step, you can create new action statuses or “states” in the FMEA Software for each cause. At this point, you can define optimization prevention and/or detection measures for each action status, including the responsible person, deadline, and status. All action statuses and measures are displayed directly and clearly in the software using a hierarchical structure.

In the final step of the FMEA, you can methodically and correctly display and export the results in the form, including AP, in accordance with AIAG and VDA. The form also displays the functions and system elements associated with the fault at the consequence and cause levels, ensuring a clear form display. The AP frequency analysis can also be usefully integrated into the FMEA presentation here, giving you a quick overview of the number of residual risks. Finally, at this point, you can perform additional graphical evaluations regarding measures and assessments or filter for further information from the FMEA.
