This course is NEWLY EXPANDED for 2013.
IDCON’s Root Cause Problem Elimination Seminar focuses on eradicating problems.
You’ll learn how to tie cause and effect together and apply logical thought processes to arrive at the problem’s core. You’ll learn how to use the “How-Can Diagram” to bring root cause analysis into your day-to-day reliability management process, and do it cost effectively!
This expanded course will focus on outlining basic mechanical engineering stress/strain fundamentals, metallurgy and engineering design which are typically necessary in the development of possible root cause(s) for mechanical failures.
We will go through many real-world case studies from a variety of industries with an interactive approach.
