Easy creation and management of PDF, Design and Process FMEAs
The DataLyzer FMEA software is an integrated module within the DataLyzer database, designed to streamline collaboration by connecting Process Flow, FMEA, Control Plan, and SPC data.
This seamless exchange of information between team members ensures that FMEAs and Control Plans remain dynamic, up-to-date documents. It also provides an efficient method for implementing reverse FMEA.
Benefits:
Tailor to Your Industry Needs – FMEA criteria and classification symbols can be tailored to fit your specific industry or document group. You can utilise standardised texts for FMEA and Control Plans, ensuring consistency and efficiency across documents. Alarm thresholds for RPN, Action Priority, or Severity can also be customised. Additional configuration options allow for precise alignment with your requirements. This setup streamlines the FMEA process and saves time while maintaining accuracy.
Detailed Authorisation Control – The FMEA software provides robust support for users, roles, and permission schemes, allowing you to manage access at a granular level. Control access to specific documents by assigning permissions to individual users, user groups, or document groups. This makes DataLyzer FMEA ideal for multi-plant environments. Additionally, user management can be integrated with Active Directory for seamless administration.
Develop and Generate Process Flows – Before creating a Process FMEA, a process flow must first be established. The software facilitates the creation of both primary and secondary flows, using standard symbols. Any changes made to the process flow are automatically reflected in the Process FMEA, and updates in the FMEA are synced with the flow, ensuring consistency between both elements.
Utilise Reference FMEAs and Specialised Filter Columns – Maintaining FMEAs becomes much simpler by using Reference FMEAs, also known as Foundation or Generic FMEAs. These reference models can be created at multiple levels, streamlining updates across all FMEAs that rely on them. Any changes made to a Reference FMEA are automatically reflected in all linked FMEAs, ensuring consistency and reducing manual effort.
IATF 16949 / RM13004 Compliance Validation – Focus on entering data without worrying about formatting. Validation rules ensure adherence to regulations and required formats like IATF 16949, RM13004, or others, eliminating the possibility of errors. This is especially critical for auditors. The integration of process flow, FMEA, and Control Plan prevents conflicts across these documents. The DataLyzer FMEA system also complies with the latest harmonised AIAG-VDA FMEA methodology.
Root Cause Analysis – Identify the root cause using the “5 Why” problem-solving technique and the Ishikawa (Fishbone) diagram, both integrated within the FMEA system for efficient analysis.
Action Priority Management – The Action Priority approach, in line with the harmonised AIAG-VDA FMEA methodology, is fully implemented. You have the flexibility to switch between RPN and Action Priority or display both simultaneously.
Open Actions Monitoring – Generate reports of incomplete actions for any FMEA in an open action list and access the corresponding FMEA directly. Email notifications are sent when actions are nearing their due dates, ensuring timely follow-up.
Agile Control Plan Linking FMEA, SPC, and Drawings or 3D Models – Import characteristics directly from ballooning software like Elias, SolidWorks, or Discus. The integration between these tools and DataLyzer allows you to populate the FMEA and Control Plan directly from file formats such as PDF, DWG, DXF, IGES, Catia, NX models, and more.
Reporting Features – Generate Pareto reports highlighting the top ‘X’ RPN numbers from a single document or a group of documents, or create reports organised by action priority. You can filter, sort, or group data based on any column for customised reporting options.
