Improvement of accuracy level using process failure mode and effect analysis and control plan techniques for automotive fender shield assembly

摘要

This paper reports Process Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (PFMEA) and control plan (CP) techniques used as preventive tools to ensure products being produced are of high quality. Data analysis based on parts' coordinate in X, Y and Z positions are performed to determine the root cause of failures. Data in prototype (P0 and P1) stage are used to prove effectiveness of PFMEA and CP techniques prior to and after both techniques have been applied in the product development process for Front Fender Shield Assembly Left Hand. Integration between PFMEA and CP and minimum target of accuracy level (85%) has been successfully achieved.
