Reliability and Simplicity

Abstract

Kirk and Fred discussing marketing reliability, brand reputation for reliability along with tradeoffs between making equipment simple and reliable.

Key Points

Join Kirk and Fred as they discuss a variety of topics around reliability.

Topics include:

• Many times the end user of a critical piece of equipment would prefer an older model that has established reliability but less features.


• It seems rare for design companies to go to the end user of equipment for feedback after a new product reliability and use after product release.


• Fred gives and example  of a  connector and how design for manufacturing is an important part of creating a reliable product.

Enjoy an episode of Speaking of Reliability. Where you can join friends as they discuss reliability topics. Join us as we discuss topics ranging from design for reliability techniques to field data analysis approaches.
