Follow one die-cast EV part from quote to approval: DFMEA, PFMEA, control plan, MSA, Cpk, PPAP and 8D
What you'll learn
Run the full APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning) process on a real die-cast EV part, from RFQ to PPAP approval
Build a DFMEA and PFMEA (Design and Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) and turn the top risks into actions
Create a process flow diagram and a control plan that link to the PFMEA step by step
Plan an MSA (Measurement System Analysis) and calculate Cp, Cpk and Ppk to prove process capability
Run T0, T1 and run-at-rate trials and decide if a process is ready for series production
Prepare a level 3 PPAP (Production Part Approval Process) package with all 18 elements and a signed PSW
Solve customer complaints with the 8D method and feed lessons learned into your next quote
Requirements
No prior APQP or PPAP experience needed. Every tool is explained from scratch using one real part.
Basic understanding of how a manufacturing plant works (drawings, tolerances, production lines) is helpful but not required
Ideal for engineers, technicians and students in automotive, die casting, machining or any supplier industry
A spreadsheet program (Excel or Google Sheets) to use the downloadable templates and complete the assignments
Description
Most APQP courses explain the five phases with slides and definitions. This one is different: you follow one real part, an aluminum EV inverter housing, from the customer's request for quotation all the way to an approved PPAP and the first customer complaint.
In 14 short, animated lectures you will build every APQP document for that part, step by step, and see how they connect into one chain
Read an RFQ like a supplier, check capacity with OEE and sign a team feasibility commitment
Run a DFM review with seven practical design tips for die castings
Build a design FMEA and a process FMEA with AIAG-VDA action priority
Draw a process flow diagram and write a control plan the shop floor can actually use
Run a gauge R&R study and find out why the first result was 34%
Build X-bar and R charts and take a process from Cpk 1.33 to 1.9
Plan T0, T1 and run at rate trials, then prepare a level 3 PPAP with all 18 elements
Solve a leak complaint with 8D and turn it into lessons learned
Every lecture comes with a ready-to-use Excel template (14 in total, with worked examples and formulas), a hands-on assignment with a model solution, and a section quiz. The course ends with a final case study on a new part, a water pump cover, where you do the whole APQP loop yourself, plus a 25-question practice test.
The course is built for quality, process and project engineers in the automotive and EV supply chain, and for students who want to understand how a new part is really launched. No prior APQP experience is needed.
Who this course is for
Quality engineers and supplier quality engineers who want to master APQP, PPAP and FMEA with a real case study
Manufacturing, process and project engineers launching new parts for automotive or EV (electric vehicle) customers
Die casting, machining and foundry professionals who want to speak the language of IATF 16949 customers
Project and program managers who need to plan and track a new product launch from quote to approva
Engineering students and new graduates preparing for their first job in the automotive supply chain
