The company "ABC Makers Ltd." is applying a typical Failure Mode and Effect Analysis, and they consider that all failure modes with a Risk Priority Number less than 105 are failure modes for which no further action is required. Under these assumptions, if a failure mode is consider to have a "Severity" index equal to 8 and an "Occurrence" index equal to 9, what is the maximum value of the "Detection" index for which no further action would be required?
Theory and Design for Mechanical Measurements
Measurement is a term that refers to analyzing a manufactured component regarding the degree of accuracy for dimensions, tolerances, geometric profile, roundness, flatness, smoothness, etc. Measurement always involves comparing the manufactured component or the prototype with a standard specimen whose dimensions and other parameters are assumed to be perfect and do not undergo changes with respect to time.Precisely in mechanical engineering the branch that deals with the application of scientific principles for measurements is known as metrology. The domain of metrology in general deals with various measurements like mechanical, chemical, thermodynamic, physical, and biological measurements. In mechanical engineering, the measurements are limited to mechanical specific such as length, mass, surface profile, flatness, roundness, viscosity, heat transfer, etc.
Basic principles of engineering metrology
Metrology is described as the science of measurement, precision, and accuracy. In other words, it is a method of measurement based on units and predefined standards.

an "Occurrence" index equal to 9, what is the maximum value of the "Detection"

Regardless of the value for the "Detection" index, the RPN for this failure mode
will always be above the set threshold.
