FMEA – AVOIDING POTENTIAL FAILURES
Prototyping is not an option while
making custom built equipment for the
Ceramic Industry, FMEA (Failure Mode
and Effect Analysis) is used to identify
potential operability problems.

7. ENGINEERED THERMAL SOLUTIONS
HAZOP
Close collaboration
between the customer and
the supplier is required to
truly analyze potential
hazard conditions.

8. ENGINEERED THERMAL SOLUTIONS
CFD SIMULATIONS
• CFD Simulations can offer
unique insights while
designing custom built
equipment.

9. ENGINEERED THERMAL SOLUTIONS
COLLABORATION IS KEY
A partnership between the Supplier
and the Customer is Key, both
parties should offer full access to
all relevant project information
ensure a successful Project
Completion.
