Tolerance specification communicates the allowance for part variation. Variation happens, and when it is within what we expect, great.

Besides building your product inside your customer's facility, your product will require some form of transportation to move from your factory to your customer. When your product doesn't work out of the box', that is considered not good' for customer satisfaction.
Some may consider these failures quality failures' or packaging failures.' Your customer doesn't care what you classify the failure as. It's a failure. It costs you money, thus it's a problem.
So, how do you help your product survive transport? Let's consider a few factors that must be considered, plus a few tips to improve both your product and packaging designs for reliability.

Tolerance specification communicates the allowance for part variation. Variation happens, and when it is within what we expect, great.
Early and often during product development, the team needs to know the expected and meaningful reliability prediction of the current design.
One of the challenges for reliability engineering in product development is reliability integration into the product development process.
How a focus on variability with process control, process capability and tolerances helps to improve reliability.
How a focus on variability with process control, process capability and tolerances helps to improve reliability.
If a person is not able to interact with your product, with or without the manual, they may consider your product a failure.
How to find and analyze temperature readings over a 10 year period, create histogram and determine how many hours below freezing may exist.
There are three approaches to set tolerance limits. Each has ramifications for the eventual manufacturability and reliability performance.
Warranty returns are a great start for setting targets for new products. But how do you translate that to specific numbers to design to?
DFR is more than a set of tools or activities, let's explore the building of a reliability culture that support reliability thinking
Fault tolerant design principles are the best approach to reliability. Or not. It depends on your design challenges.
Besides building your product inside your customer's facility, your product requires transportation to move your product.
This webinar introduces you to the topic of reliability growth (both qualitative and quantitative) along with key concepts
I will discuss the identification of conditions that cause materials to degrade. Understanding stressors is good for design for reliability
