Item & Function Failure Mode Effects of Failure S Causes of Failure O Design Controls D RPN Recommended Actions Responsibility & Deadline Actions Taken S* O* D* RPN*
Motor
  • Powers the gear train
Electrical failures: Motor may overheat and fail Product will not mix the ice cream, and the product may not have good consistency. 8 Motor may overheat when the ice cream starts solidifying. The increased viscosity of the ice cream may add too much torque on the motor. 6 Testing with different types of ice cream and find the point when the load applied is too high 3 124 Find a controller that will turn off the motor once the torque applied to the motor gets too high Motor Manufacturer Integrate a current sensor into the design 8 1 3 24
Mechanical Failure: Gear train may strip The rotation of the motor will not be transferred to the product 8 The increased friction in between the separate gears can cause the gears to strip 2 Testing the durability of the gears 3 48 Test different materials to find the most cost-effective solution Gear Manufacturer N/A 8 2 3 48
Mixing Arm
  • Plastic piece that mixes the contents of the bowl
Mixing arm breaks/fails Contents of the bowl will not be properly mixed to form a consistent product. 4 The increased viscosity of the product may cause the mixing arm to break. 3 Test to see the breaking point of the mixing arm. 1 12 Test different materials to find the most cost-effective solution Manufacturer N/A 4 3 1 12
