Abstract

This paper examines the potential risks for the design and manufacture products for medical robotics using FMEA method. So we researched all foreseeable potential defects and their causes and effects for a robotic arm. The product is decomposed into components / functions and researched on the requirements for construction, namely the preservation of these requirements during production. Through a qualitative assessment of the effect of a defect, the probability of occurrence and probability of detection were discovered risks and set appropriate corrective measures. Thus FMEA is an effective method of preventive quality assurance.
