  • Abstract
    The reliability and Design for Reliability (DFR) guidelines, discussed are based on established design principles and rapid innovation methods for failure avoidance. These guidelines can move you, your design team and your organization from one which simply tracks, charts, and reports reliability, to one that engages meaningful Design for Reliability (DFR) activities and initiates powerful but inexpensive corrective actions; resulting in maximum equipment availability and reliability. Your organization can thus be one that achieves and exceeds reliability requirements and improves product image and sales, due to a product reputation for reliability and quality.
