Typically a characteristics matrix is derived from characteristics on the print(s) and any process controls you identify in the process FMEA. Essentially it is a list of characteristics you plan to monitor / control. Critical/Safety/(Important, etc. - whatever in accordance with your and your customer's terminology) characteristics are listed as a minimum. IP: Logged |

The characteristic matrix (although not required) is a good tool to use as an input to the final control plan. If used, the matrix should be part of the final APQP/PPAP evidence book. In practical use, the control plan becomes a characteristic matrix. ASD... IP: Logged |

Hi, The characteristics Matrix, if done effectively can contribute to a lot of success in your Process review implementation. Hey! Omnex does the best training program on these methodologies. I think they are present in India too. Visit their web site for more info. Regards, IP: Logged |

Just a note: RonSmith is unregistered. I don't know exactly what the occasion is, but today every message Ron has left has been a confirmation of omnex. I wouldn't question this particularly, but with no registration it seems like a lot of love for omnex. I do hope this is not SPAM. IP: Logged |

If that's the case, no problem. You might want to provide some details in the future as to what specifically you use that Omnex sells and why you like it. Other details would also be appreciated. When I see a sentence that just says something like "Hey! Omnex can solve your problems, they're the experts!" without any details of how or why you believe that and what program you use and what there is about it that you like, and then a link - well, to me that's 'approaching' SPAM, if not SPAM. I would have said nothing if it was one message. Maybe even 2. But as I remember there were 6+ messages within a few minutes which all said the same thing - a sentence about Omnix and a link with no details. There was a 6th or 7th message which alone did not mention Omnix - you asked for a copy of a form from Al, as I remember, in one. In addition, there was one response where you said something like "This is off topic, but whatever you need Omnix can help..." for which I could see no reason to be injected that into a thread. If Omnix can help, with some details tell us how they helped you. Accolades are fine - but we're really looking for details that can help us evaluate possible choices and which help us as we make decisions rather than a blanket "...Company X is the best..." statement. Lastly, this is not a slam against Omnix. They, like the other canned software solutions companies, make some canned solutions which work for some people in some companies. IP: Logged |

Just to clarify, my comment that the poster was unregistered was only to say that there was no e-mail address so there was no way to even guess whether or not the post was legit. That said, Al is right in that many companies do not have specific, discrete characteristics matrices. As far as going to Omnex for information as suggested by Ron, in fact you have all the information at hand right here at the Cove. Characteristics matrices and other APQP requirements like this are discussed with some detail at /APQP/ Be sure to read the notes below the slides. IP: Logged |
