Hello Everyone,
I'm a quality consultant, working in many industries, but mainly automotive, aerospace and consumer goods. I have some specialist experience in FMEAs, but would like to clarify the following:
A) Can anyone advise on what criteria are used to identify the following Special Characteristics in a DFMEA and PFMEA, in terms of Severity, Occurrence and Detection rankings?
1. Critical Characteristic
2. Significant Characteristic
3. Major Characteristic
4. Standard Characteristic
This information would normally be shown in the 'Classification' columns of the FMEAs. Attached are what I believe to be the normal criteria used by Ford and Visteon. Are these correct, or does anyone know of amendments to these?
B) Does anyone know the significance/meaning of of the 'Y' and 'V' prefix for YS (potential significant characteristic) and VS (confirmed significant characteristic).
I would really appreciate your feedback on these points
