✦ Synopsis

At Eaton Truck Components, design assurance technologies are embedded early into the design, manufacturing, and service process. The company, a Kalamazoo, Michigan-based division of Eaton Corporation, designs and manufactures transmissions for the heavy-duty, medium-duty, and light-duty trucks, including hybrid electric vehicles (HEV).

The process begins at the Production Definition phase, where the key goals for each product are specified:

. System Reliability Goal-No mission-stopping failure during the expected life.

. System Safety Goal-No fatalities any time even beyond expected life.

. Maintainability Goal-Eliminate as much downtime as possible, by design.

. Logistics Engineering Goal-Improve serviceability and fault isolation capabilities.

. Human Factors Engineering Goal-Design to reduce the impact of driver errors.

. System Integration Goal-Aim for high Availability and smart diagnostics.

Each of these goals is communicated to customers to ensure quality in the design and manufacturing processes. Managers believe that high reliability reduces the product cost, because eliminating problems is cheaper than fixing them in the field. That is
