Abstract
This paper is concerned with the determination of the failure characteristics of very complex, multi-spindle, multi-station production equipment which are typical of many modern-day high volume manufacturing facilities. Extensive statistical as well as graphical analyses conclusively showed that those complex machinery can be treated as a composite unit whose failure patterns can be characterized by a Poisson process.Keywords
