“What really impressed me the most about ReliaTrain as a company is its depth of knowledge on DFMEA and PFMEA and how they need to be tied together to develop a reliable product that includes design for manufacturability. Throughout the implementation phase, he and his team consistently worked with the Velodyne to address both the design concerns and manufacturability of product itself. The amount of attention to details and how each process is linking to one another has brought Velodyne to another level of understanding on how to manufacture the lidar in high volume. Going through the exercise of DFMEA and PFMEA has taught Velodyne Engineers on how to approach the failure modes and the effects in a practical and economical manner. His team successfully trained our engineers and guided them to use the manufacturing tools such as Process Flow (PFD), PFMEA, MSA, Control Charts (PCP), and SPC.”
