Abstract
Failure modes and effects analysis is one of the most important methods for determining reliability of the whole production system. If this analysis is implemented in the early stage of a process development, many problems and part errors can be reduced. This is essential nowadays, since high competitive markets force manufacturers to produce high quality products as cheap as possible.
In this paper FMEA was performed in case of injection molding process for manufacturing pipe fittings Ø75/45° and Ø75/90°, using results obtained from both numerical simulation (MOLDEX3D) and the experiment.
