What Does FMECA Stand For?
FMECA stands for Failure Mode Effects And Criticality Analysis
FMECA, or Failure Mode Effects and Criticality Analysis, is a systematic methodology used to identify and evaluate potential failure modes within a system, process, or product. It assesses the effects of these failures on performance and safety, prioritizing them based on their severity and likelihood of occurrence. This analysis aids in determining critical components that require design improvements or additional controls, ultimately enhancing reliability and reducing risks in various industries, including engineering, manufacturing, and healthcare.
