Hi..
I am one of the team member of a group selected to come up with a flow chart , process fmea, control plan for a car arieal cable assembly. I want to read some materials first before attending the meeting to give ideas. I am from manufacturing and new to this concept.
Is there anyone out there who has some examples to show, not necessarily cable assembly, but anything similar is good enough.
Also the how do we go about quanitifying the severerity, occurances and detectability in a scale of 1 to 10? Based on ppm, experience, past data, gut feel?. Would appreciate some help

Thanks!

Please do a search here.

You can start at the bottom of this page here where similar threads are mentioned.
In the "Post attachment list" ( see top of this page here ) you can find numerous examples of either flow charts, FMEA's and CP's.
The topics you mention have already been discussed here in a lot of threads.

If you have more specific questions afterwards, I 'm sure you will get help here.
Best regards,

Antoine

Have you read any of the Flow chart, FMEA, Control Plan examples here yet? Or are you wanting some of us to help think of actual failure modes for your assembly?

As to quantifying the severity, occurrences and detectability in a scale of 1 to 10, each has different data sources you can look at. Occurrences and detectability are generally to some degree able to be looked at with respect to data you gather (or shold be) in-house. Severity is typically subjective to some degree.

Hi Marc,
Thanks for your explanation.
Yes, I have read some of the threads, but was thinking of a process similar to the cable assembly.


Would appreciate if anyone out there can give me various failure modes that can open in this arieal cable. The cable is a one core shield wire that has the processes of wire cutting, crimping, soldering.
thanks
