Invitation to a Free Seminar on Reliability Analysis

It can also be used as a front-end for ERP systems such as SAP! Visualize inspection and production schedules and actuals, along with associated costs, in a calendar format!

FLiPS is an asset management system developed with the aim of providing a user experience similar to Excel, and it is particularly recommended for customers facing the following challenges: - A user-friendly interface that is easily accepted on-site, with a desire for integration with ERP systems - The need to centrally manage the quality of manufactured products and the condition of equipment - The desire to visualize the costs, schedules, and actual results necessary for equipment maintenance in a calendar format - The need to understand the frequency and number of unexpected failures and to establish maintenance plans that reflect actual conditions - The desire to know the optimal cycle for regular inspections and replacements - The need to streamline budget formulation related to the purchase and maintenance of equipment Additionally, it is now integrated with various IoT-related products, enabling the following capabilities: 1. Automatically creating and notifying maintenance and inspection plans when sensor data indicates thresholds are likely to be exceeded, notifying both managers and workers 2. Integrating with tablet-compatible systems (such as i-Reporter) to aggregate and visualize information from the field.

Functional safety, fully compliant with ISO 26262! It allows for semi-automated evaluation from failure rate calculation to report creation, making it ideal for standardization!

Reliability Workbench is a tool based on reliability engineering used to evaluate and analyze reliability and safety assessments, as well as maintenance content for equipment, in accordance with functional safety. It has been adopted by many companies both domestically and internationally as a tool to evaluate the reliability and safety of equipment required by functional safety standards such as IEC61508 and ISO26262, with over 14,000 installations worldwide. Reliability Workbench is composed of modules for each function, addressing safety requirements such as those in ISO26262. For example: - Prediction: Failure rate calculations corresponding to various handbooks (such as SN29500) - Safety Assessment: Safety evaluations - Fault tree: Fault tree analysis - FMECA: Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis and other modules as mentioned above. The main industries where it has been implemented are as follows: - Automotive - Railways - Aerospace - Plants - Industrial equipment

Why is a dedicated tool for FTA+ necessary for ISO26262 functional safety compliance? Simply put, it is because it can perform cut set analysis.

1. What can and cannot be done with Excel FT diagrams can be created using Excel (or other Office tools). However, FT diagrams created in Excel cannot perform safety analyses such as cut set analysis or quantitative evaluations. They also cannot provide explanations for safety evaluations of models at the system level. 2. What cannot be done without specialized tools Cut set analysis, common cause failures, dependent failures, and systematic failures are difficult to express without specialized tools. The Enterprise version allows for revision management during collaborative work. It can also integrate with external tools like DOORS to manage changes during collaboration. 3. Differentiating between Excel and FTA+ For FT diagrams that are not complex and do not have common cause failures, Excel is suitable as it can be created relatively easily without additional costs. For models that are ASIL C or higher, or those that involve common cause failures that cannot be intuitively identified, FaultTree+ with its robust analysis features is more appropriate. When considering tools for ISO 26262 compliance, it is essential to ensure that cut set analysis can be performed.

RCM, RAMS analysis support software

The Availability Workbench is software designed to support the implementation of RCM (Reliability-Centered Maintenance) and RAMS analysis (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, and Safety analysis). The Availability Workbench focuses on the failures of components (system systems) that make up plants and systems, using reliability engineering methods to assist with the following: - Quantitative evaluation of the availability of plants and systems - Development of maintenance plans aimed at eliminating causes of failure - Evaluation of the effectiveness of condition monitoring - Spare parts and workforce planning - Assessment of the lifecycle costs of plants and systems By using the Availability Workbench, it becomes possible to conduct Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) and to predict reliability, availability, and lifecycle costs (LCC) with constraints on spare parts and other resources.

[Instructor] Paulstar Communications Inc. Representative Director Koji Kita [Key Lecture Content] Have you ever felt that, despite entrusting work to Generation Z and young employees, they "don't seem to get started," "don't lead to the expected results," or "it's ultimately faster to do it myself"? Behind these situations are various factors, including the recognition gap between supervisors and young employees regarding "entrusting and being entrusted," how to communicate the purpose of the work, the approach, and the scope of discretion, as well as how to follow up after delegating tasks. In this seminar, we will practically explain "how to delegate work" to elicit proactive behavior, taking into account the perspectives and behavioral characteristics of Generation Z and young employees. We will share specific management techniques to help supervisors break free from the burden of work, encourage the autonomy and growth of young employees, and steadily lead to results.

[Speaker] Yoichiro Okuyama, Senior Researcher, Research Department, Hamagin Research Institute, Inc. [Key Lecture Content] In China, the operation of autonomous taxis began in 2021, and now fully unmanned robo-taxis are running in cities like Beijing and Shenzhen. Experiencing a ride reveals the evolution of technology through natural acceleration, smooth steering, and seamless deceleration. Currently, there are several thousand vehicles in operation, but projections suggest that by 2030, this number could exceed one million, accounting for 70% of the global total. What are the underlying factors driving the social implementation of robo-taxis in China? By incorporating local test ride experiences, we will analyze the revenue situation of robo-taxi operating companies and the outlook for market expansion based on data, exploring their future potential. [Lecture Items] 1. Personal experiences of test riding robo-taxis in China 2. Trends in the market size of robo-taxis in China and globally 3. Background of the advancing social implementation of robo-taxis in China 4. Public acceptance and actual usage 5. Performance and challenges of major robo-taxi companies 6. Will robo-taxis become widespread in Japan as well? 7. Q&A / Business card exchange
