MTBF Prediction
BQR’s MTBF parts count online SAAS (Software As A Service) application is a simple yet powerful tool for fast MTBF prediction, based on Mil-HDBK-217 F2 standard.
Benefits
Highlights
- Automatic detection of component group during BOM import
- Default settings for component group
Features
- Import BOM from all major ECADs
- Component libraries
- Quick access to component data from Digi-Key
How It Works
Steps for conducting a MTBF calculation
Import (optional)
- Import the Bill Of Materials (BOM) from any CSV format (export to CSV is available in all major ECADs)
- Upload parts library (if available) with previously defined component parameters
- During import the software AI extracts relevant information from the component description text
User Input
- Select Environment (for example: GM = Ground Mobile)
- Add or delete components
- Define default values for component families
- Define parameters for specific components
- Add custom components with user defined failure rate
Analysis
- The software validates the user data. If data is missing, user is notified
- Software calculates the failure rates and MTBF for all components, and the whole system
Reports
- Detailed MTBF report
- Pareto reports to identify leading failure drivers
- All reports can be saved as Excel, HTML or Word files
