While it may seem like an untimely topic given the current supply chain shortages, storage systems for electronic components are an important part of the electronic assembly industry. While we are still in the midst of a supply chain crisis, sooner or later this will be solved and the question of where to put all of our components will be waiting for us to answer. It’s often said we don’t have time to work on the important because we’re so busy working on the urgent.
My guest today is Mike Adamson, Product Manager for Inovaxe Corporation, a provider of material handling products and services for the electronic assembly industry. In today’s hyper-competitive electronic assembly industry, efficiency and optimization are key to maintaining competitiveness.
Mike received a BS in physics from the University of Wisconsin La Crosse as well as a BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities. In addition, Mike also earned an MBA in Marketing from Lynn University.

We’re developing requirements for our product, including setting reliability requirements. Or we’re setting acceptance criteria for our test plans.
What confidence levels do we choose? We don’t have to blindly set them – we can base it off the risks of failure, using our FMEA (failure mode effects analysis).

So, if you have heard of these things (and are confused by them) or if you are involved in ‘processes’ (especially manufacturing), then this webinar might help you out. [Read more…]

Chris and Fred discuss reliability goals … and how we ‘allocate’ them to components and subsystems. This is really important, as subsystems and components are often built and designed by different designers or organizations. So how do we translate system-level goals to MEANINGFUL lower-level goals?

We’re starting to populate an FMEA table with our team. We get it started, but then we get stuck in disagreements. Or we think we finish it and then we don’t know what to do with it.
We can avoid these headaches with a little planning (or maybe a lot of planning – it depends on the project). We talk about risk management planning as it relates to FMEA.
