• Step 4: Recognize Potential Root Causes −− Identifying possible causes −− Process Maps −− Cause-Effect diagrams −− 5-Why tool
and implement solutions to prevent recurrence. Benefits include improved quality and customer satisfaction, reduced operation costs, and greater employee knowledge of work processes. This proven 8-step approach to problem solving will help improve operational and financial performance by identifying causes and implementing solutions to significant or recurring problems. This approach to problem solving is used by many major automotive manufacturers. Learning Objectives By participating in this web seminar, you will be able to: • Describe the 8-Step Problem Solving Methodology • Define the difference between Symptom and Root Cause • Use tools and techniques to solve problems • Evaluate effectiveness of problems solving efforts • Describe the role of problem solving in continuous improvement • Write an action plan to apply problem solving to a specific concern Who Should Attend This course is applicable to those directly working in or responsible for performance improvement of any definable, repetitive process, e.g. manufacturing, design, logistics, purchasing, sales, or distribution, including: manufacturing managers, supervisors and team leaders; manufacturing engineers; design engineers; quality engineers and technicians; technical managers; project team leaders; problem solving and quality improvement facilitators; anyone whose role includes problem solving; therefore all supervisors and lead personnel.

Vibration Analysis Using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) 12 Hours | Web Seminar or On Demand Course I.D.# WB1401 or PD331401ON Finite Element Analysis (FEA) has been used by engineers as a design tool in new product development since the early 1990’s. Until recently, most FEA applications have been limited to static analysis due to the cost and complexity of advanced types of analyses. Progress in the commercial FEA software and in computing hardware has now made it practical to use advanced types as an everyday design tool of design engineers. In addition, competitive pressures and quality requirements demand a more in-depth understanding of product behavior under real life loading conditions. This course will enable participants to expand the scope of FEA to vibration analysis to simulate product behavior under those conditions.
