Let me make a couple of obsevations just to spark some discussion (being fully aware that this is a VERY generic Control Plan).

Each Product/Process Charateristic should be a separate line item. (In other words, there should not be an entry on the same line combining the two)

Each Product/Process Characteristic needs to have a Control Method filled in (two are missing).

The Product Specifications do not belong in the Product Characteristic column but rather in the Product/Process Specification/Tolerance column.

How are "Mixing of parts" and "Wrong label" being evaluated/measured?

I realize you may have just thrown this together for sake of an example, but these ar a few of the things Control Plans get rejected by customers for (in my experience).

Guys,
Just wondering whether the 1st Piece Buy-Off is part of the operation or Evaluation Measurement Technique? :notme:

Riviving an old thread...
I have been asked by a European counterpart to provide a incoming goods PFMEA... ? OK, this is coming out of left field for me and I have no clue what he is looking for? Is it even possible to have a generic PFMEA for receiving components?

Sure it is. In the Process Characteristic column you might have "Accept nonconforming product" or " Reject conforming product" as entries (there may be others). In the Product Characteristic column you would list the features on the product that you are monitoring (diameters, heights, widths, aesthetic properties, etc.).

Here are a couple of threads to read through that might help you a little more.

Hai,

Here is an example we are currently using and you can link the data between cells so that all the associated documents are updated at one time and revised properly.
This doc is currently under review and if you have better format share it.

Hope this helps

Hello All,
This is my first time posting but been registered for awhile. Wanted to thank everyone for their posts, and information they have helped me out with my responsibilities of getting all of our documents and processes up to date.
I wanted to know if any one has the PFMEA that goes along with the control plan that was posted by "pmwong". Our company has currently submitted PPAP for our customer and they have responded back that our Process Flow Diagram, PFMEA, and Control Plan need work. The posted control plan will help me out and just wanted to FMEA to go along with it.
Thank You
Brian

Hello

For the moment i am also involved with the blow moulding process BUT to send a control plan without anything else is not the way because first of all you have to make up a process flow , then a P FMEA and then a Control plan , where al the the items of the P FMEA are linked

If you want more info please let me know

I understand that you have to do a process flow, then a PFMEA, then the process control plan. I also understand that they are linked together and you have to have one to finish the other. I just needed some examples to help me out to better understand them and to get my own in order.
Also my company does plastic injection molding. I have found a couple examples already but they deal more with metal stamping.
