According to the plentiful early failure data collected on the spots of 30 CNC machining tools with ATC (Automatic Tool Changer), FMECA method is used to analyze the main fault mode and facts which usually make a great possible impact on the reliability of these products during early failure period.We find out the fault positions and the ratios of the fault modes and fault causes. We further analyze the fault modes and fault causes which frequently arise in the subsystems and parts. Through the analyses of FMECA, we learn the weak links of CNC machining tools and provide bases for removing the products faults. Suggestions how to enhance reliability level of these products are proposed.
