Implementing Linked DFMEAs, and FTAs with EwQIMS

by Mary Rowzee,Nikhil Unnikrishnan published on June 13, 2023

There are many effective product risk analysis tools in various industries today, with Failure Mode Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) being the most frequently used. This webinar will showcase the use of software tools for integrating and optimizing information from both FMEAs and FTAs.

Join us in this webinar to better understand:

What are FMEAs and FTAs?
The need for the digitalization of AIAG-VDA FMEA and AIAG 4th edition FMEAs.
The Omnex approach to handling single and multipoint FMEAs using the software.
How FMEA developed analyses can generate a Fault Tree Analysis?
Utilization of Fault Tree Analyses in understanding the relationship of simultaneous potential causes of failure and supporting requirements traceability for Functional Safety impacted products.
