“…FMEA is an approach that helps identify and prioritize potential failures in equipment, systems or processes, becoming a logical system that prioritizes potential failures and provides recommendations for preventive actions (Kardec et al, 2002). Thurnes et al (2015) corroborate defining the FMEA as the most established tool for risk analysis and prevention of various engineering failures. In addition, the FMEA allows identifying and prioritizing potential failures in equipment, systems or processes, aiming to anticipate known or potential failure modes and recommend corrective actions to eliminate or compensate for the effects of failures (Lafraia, 2001).…”

The objective of this paper is to analyze the excess of failures in a mobile phone line production in order to make process improvements in a factory of the industrial pole of Manaus (PIM) by using FMEA methodology (Failure Mode, effect analysis). The excess of failures was an extremely influential aggravating factor by its customer, since the increase of the productive capacity in the company would be determined by the reduction of the percentage of failures or increase of YIELD from the conception of the product until the final phase of its life. Tracing the root causes is an important step in improving manufacturing processes for reducing failures. The impact of this is the reduction in industrial costs and an increase in the quality index of the product, ensuring customer satisfaction in having to produce its product in a factory that operates under condition the EMS (Electronic Manufacturing Services).

“…It usually takes time to perform the FMEA well. In order to overcome the fact that FMEA is limited to normal expectations of occurring failures, some of the researches propose to combine FMEA with AFD (anticipatory failure determination) and/or AHP (analytical hierarchy processes) (Thurnes et al 2015;Mzougui and Felsoufi 2019;Kulcsár et al 2020). Additionally, some studies propose hybrid models, for example with fuzzy methods (Fuzzy Preference Programming, Fuzzy Cognitive Maps and others) as was proposed by (Baykasoglu and Gölcük 2017).…”

Under the growing complexity of manufacturing processes, supply chains, markets and stakeholder expectations, enterprise risk management (ERM) has become an extremely important, probably yet still underdeveloped, management function. Enterprise risk management theory and practice should keep pace with the changes of rapidly changing environments, through new, more adaptive approaches. The article presents some of the results of a longitudinal survey at Eastern-European manufacturing organizations made on risk management techniques. The goal of the research was the study of risk management techniques under rapidly changing environments in highly standardized industries (pharmaceutical and automotive). The research was focused on the role of human resources in handling technology-related/operational risks and to what extent a decentralized risk management is present. Multidisciplinary cooperation, the selection of the teams, communication and the decision making within the team was analysed. During our research few common risk analysis routines were identified at the studied organizations. Through an interview-based qualitative survey, possible weaknesses of common risk identification techniques were identified. The article presents three risk evaluation methods with the same features. The answers provided during the interviews indicate that risk assessment techniques are mostly centralized (coordinated by a single person/unit), linear (based on If-Then construct) and rigid, definitively not suitable when quick changes are in the organization environment.

“…The anticipatory failure determination method was developed by Zlotin and Zusman [26]. It is based on the concepts that were called "subversion analysis" in earlier TRIZ work by Zlotin, Zusman, Altshuller, and Filatov [27,28] and Kaplan [29].…”

“…Ungvari [30] compared AFD with FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) and noted that AFD differed from traditional failure analysis in transforming the idea of preventing failure into inventing and creating failures. Proseanic et al [26] applied AFD to the analysis of the car engine, noticed that using AFD significantly reduced the time of brainstorming and increased the efficiency of the team. In addition, Chybowski et al [32] applied three elements of the AFD method (AFD-1, AFD-2, and AFD-3) at the concept formulation stage of a system's development for improving the technology readiness level.…”

Anticipatory Non-Green-Phenomena Determination for Designing Eco-Design Products

2021

The number of consumers with green awareness have grown these days and as a result they have turned to purchase eco-friendly products. For this reason, this study aims to propose a method for eco-design based on the anticipatory failure determination method to develop eco-design products. By using eco-design concepts adopted from the World Business Council for Sustainable Development, the process will limit the failures and issues related to environmental impact in product design. The proposed method for eco-design product in this study follows the following procedure. First, we analyze product failure. Second, we propose the determination of the non-green phenomenon of the failure. Thirdly, we integrate the intensified non-green phenomenon to generate non-green hypotheses and fourthly, we eliminate each non-green phenomenon hypothesis by introducing the contradiction matrix of TRIZ for obtaining solutions. Finally, we assess alternative eco-design solutions by evaluation. To verify the practicality of the new procedure, a washing machine is used as an example for illustration.
