Abstract

It is aimed to gain study substantiality by making an application for risk analysis study in the automotive industry. To bring to the literature the current point of risk analyzes used in FMEA methods applied in the automotive industry. At the same time, it is aimed to improve a problem experienced in the process of an operating in the automotive supplier industry with the risk analysis method. Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) from risk analysis which is strong method to identifying and managing of the risks of potential failures occurring from product, process, service and system. Three methods were used in FMEA risk analysis in the study. AIAG FMEA Handbook fourth edition 2008, VDA-4 standard and new generation AIAG&VDA FMEA handbook, 2019. In this study, a Process FMEA study was prepared for the surface coating preparation process used by an automotive supplier industry. According to the results of the risk analysis, corrective actions were defined and prepared after the P-FMEA study. Afterwards, the necessary investments were made by the company management and the risks were minimized. With this investment, an innovative and technological application was integrated by ensuring the transition of the process from the human factor to automation. In addition, differences and current information about FMEA evaluation methods used in the automotive industry have been brought to the literature
