Reliability Predictions
ASENT’s Reliability Manager – the cornerstone of the
entire toolkit – contains some key usability features: a powerful product tree
editor, the ability to import almost any file format, quick access to part data,
prediction tools for both operating and non-operating failure rates, sensitivity
analysis, a mission profiler, comprehensive reporting features, and a powerful
replicate function. This replicate feature alone can save an enormous amount of
time when updating designs with many common modules.
ASENT includes many of the most popular prediction methods used
for calculating both operating and non-operating failure rates. Other companies
charge extra for these methods, but they are all standard with ASENT.
When performing calculations, failure rate status
flags are clearly displayed next to each item in your product tree structure.
When failure rates have been calculated, these flags alert the user to any
potential problems. Also, calculation dates are displayed for all assemblies
so that you know when the last update was made at a glance.


ASENT’s bi-directional interface to
SRC's PRISM tool and RIAC’s 217Plus tool provide several advantages:
•
ASENT’s product tree structure and powerful editing capabilities,
along with its extensive part library, are readily available to PRISM and 217Plus.
•
ASENT’s comprehensive reporting capabilities can be used in
addition to the reporting found in PRISM and 217Plus.
•
By using PRISM or 217Plus to calculate failure rates, users are assured
that the latest models associated with the selected prediction method are used.
•
These failure rates are readily available to ASENT users for
follow-on analyses, such as FMECA or maintainability predictions.
•
PRISM and 217Plus are invoked from ASENT by simply selecting a menu option.
