This topic explains how to create FMECA Studies using the Show FMECA icon and the New operation (save design first) / linking to a Diagnostic Study. Course Includes:
– Relationships between Failure Modes and Failure Effects (Local Effects/Next Higher/End Level)
– Generating Functional Failure Effects from Failure Modes
– Hierarchical Expansion, the "Primary Key" option, controlling sort order
– Remainder Failure Modes / Non-Propagating Failure Modes / Failure Effects with No Effect
– Customizing the Layout, Predefined FMECA Columns, Attribute-based Columns

Required: eXpress
Optional: None

Standard: Free using DSI provided examples.

Optional: $750 using student provided examples (Maximum of 4 hours of preparation time per course).
