Thumbs up Re: Cyber Blue Program Review Process

To all that are reading this thread posted by Chris,

This is what succesful technical companies do. We at FANUC call it an FMEA, because we like acronyms. It stands for Failure Modes Effects Analysis and it is performed exactly as Chris describes it.

What amazes me is that Chris and his team can actually pull this off in the six week FIRST design cycle. I thought we were stretching it by designing everything in CAD before we cut one chip, but the procedure Cyber Blue is incorporating takes A LOT of engineering discipline. I am recommending this thread be at the top of everyone's "to read" list.

Great job Cyber Blue,

Paul
