Objetive of PPAP (Production Part Approval Process)

The purpose of PPAP is to determine if all records of engineering design and customer specifications are properly understood by the supplier and that the process has the potential to produce consistently meeting these requirements during an actual production run.

 The provider must obtain full approval of the product approval activity for the client to:
A new part or product (a specific part, material or color not provided).

 The PPAP apply to sites of internal and external suppliers of production materials, production parts and service parts Supplier will comply with all requirements specified for example design records, specifications, etc.. Any result that is out of specification will be cause for the provider may not support parts, documentation and / or records.

 WE HAVE TO COVER THE 18 POINTS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PPAP:

1. Design documents 2. Engineering Change Authorization 3. Customer approval engineering 4. FMEA design. 5. Flowchart 6. Process FMEA 7. Control Plan 8. Measurement System Analysis 9. Result dimensional

10. Results of material performance. 11. Initial Studies 12. Qualified laboratory 13. Appearance Approval Report 14. Production sample parts 15. part master 16. Checking Aids 17. Specific customer requirements 18. PSW

The project began with the notification of an engineering change alert by Ford in which mention was made perceptible noise operator.

 DESIGN DOCUMENTS
The first thing we aim to do and with the potential change is to request the drawing with required characteristics at our development center in Canada Bradford obsolete design

 ENGINEERING CHANGE AUTHORIZATION

Authorization Engineering Change was released both in our development center and in the Flex N Gate plant in Quertaro, with Ford handles the format for this type of change in which the exchange rate is specified at what levels affects specified the new customer number, general business data. And was approved by the plant and development center.

 The format of the engineering change authorization for Ford has the name SREA-Description of Proposed Change.

Design FMEA

The design FMEA is applied to our development, since they are responsible for the design of the parts are manufactured, assembled at the plant, and revised in APQP board so they have referred all potential failure modes from design .

change in cable assembly concerning the FMEA.

Control Plan.
The control plan our process is unchanged in the points referring to the cable, in order to control the new failure modes considered in the FMEA. Tether inspection 3020211001 assy in the inspection area and the rivet receiving the cable in the area of assemb

Result dimensional To ensure that the part is meeting the specifications of dimensions and materials Full test was performed with the help lay out in our laboratory, in which the design and engineering with baloneado, 6 pcs are measured and recorded the results to ensure that the part meets the specifications we asked our

Results of material performance. The performance results as material certificates material (steel, alloys, etc.). Omitted by bilateral agreement, as the engineering change took place not change the material of the piece or some of the components that up.

Qualified laboratory The point corresponding to the certified laboratory, we cover it with ISO TS 16949 certification, currently has thus cover Ford customer with item quality laboratory.

Specific customer requirements. Ford asked us certificramos all materials that make up the assembly Winch U377, for this you must collect all approvals of our suppliers and verify that they were in the database of Material Data System, an organization that avoids the introduction of prohibited substances contacting the products of human beings. The process of filling out the forms, is to include all parts purchased in order to ensure that no banned substances at the end, just as record Ventramex made parts, this point was not updated because the only verified tether cable assembly materials comply with this standard, so the IMDS was sent was the one who kept the previous engineering level.

PSW With all the documents that were requested by the client made an electronic folder and is sent for review and subsequent approval, the Part Submission Warrant for U377 winch piece was approved by our client Ford on 30 April 2010 and with this we get the goal that we approve the PPAP, parts shipped to the previously requested engineering change
