Introduction to
Design for Reliability |
Course Overview
Design for
Reliability (DFR) brings together the entire set of
methods and tools that support product and process
design (during the Product Development Cycle) to ensure
customer expectations for reliability are fully met.
Companies are challenged to achieve uniformly high
reliability in their product and process designs, while
at the same time meeting shorter product development
time schedules and lower budgets. This introduction to
Design for Reliability covers the entire set of tools
and methods that support DFR from concept through
production. Topics include: overview of individual DFR
methods; the proper use of tools to support DFR methods;
integrating methods and tools into an effective DFR
plan; application examples; common pitfalls to avoid;
key elements of successful DFR programs, and more. |
