BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu ENGR-11_Lec-12_Chp10_Design_for_X.ppt 3 Bruce Mayer, PE Engineering-11: Engineering Design Basic Design Engineering Goals  Design Engineering Goals for Product: “performs as expected” “works all the time” & “lasts long” “is easy to maintain”  and THAT no damage occurs to product no damage or harm to environment no harm or injury to operator or user

4. BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu ENGR-11_Lec-12_Chp10_Design_for_X.ppt 4 Bruce Mayer, PE Engineering-11: Engineering Design Design for X (DfX)  During design, we often focus on the final product, and not its manufacture.  The Design For X (DfX) philosophy suggests that a design be continually reviewed from the start to the end to find ways to improve production and other non-functional aspects  Advantages of DfX techniques include shorter production times fewer production steps smaller parts inventory more standardized parts simpler designs that are more likely to be robust they can help when expertise is not available, or as a way to re-examine traditional designs proven to be very successful over decades of application

BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu ENGR-11_Lec-12_Chp10_Design_for_X.ppt 7 Bruce Mayer, PE Engineering-11: Engineering Design Failure Modes & Effects Analysis  The FMEA Method seeks to systematically identify and correct potential product or process deficiencies before they occur  The Process Identify EVERY Way in Which Product Can FAIL; i.e., determine the Failure MODES Analyze the CONSEQUENCES of Every Failure; i.e., determine the EFFECTS

8. BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu ENGR-11_Lec-12_Chp10_Design_for_X.ppt 8 Bruce Mayer, PE Engineering-11: Engineering Design Failure Modes & Effects Analysis  After Completion of the FMEA Work to REDUCE The NUMBER of Failure MODES The SEVERITY of the EFFECTS  Prioritize Risk Reduction using “Risk Priority No.”

9. BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu ENGR-11_Lec-12_Chp10_Design_for_X.ppt 9 Bruce Mayer, PE Engineering-11: Engineering Design FMEA Example  Log Splitter  FMEA considers Both DESIGN and MANUFACTURING Deficiencies  Example  Hydraulic Log Splitter Hydraulic hose, on a home-use log splitter, begins to leak. The leak reduces the pressure to the piston/ram resulting in poor splitting. The leak drips oil on ground, creating a mess, costly too! Upon examination, a weak spot is found on hose due to poor manufacturing!

10. BMayer@ChabotCollege.edu ENGR-11_Lec-12_Chp10_Design_for_X.ppt 10 Bruce Mayer, PE Engineering-11: Engineering Design FMEA Main Concepts  Failure Mode: the “way” a part fails to perform e.g. failure mode: hose leaks  Effect: adverse consequence of failure mode e.g. hose leak results in oil spills, refill costs Effects can be severe or hardly noticeable.  Cause: why it fails (or may fail) e.g. poor hose manufacturing, improper pressure Causes occur with some likelihood or probability  Dectectability: the ability to discover the cause before the part is shipped from the factory. e.g. conduct a pressure test to detect leaks?
