BOM Modules

Modules can be defined here so that FIT rates can be calculated modular (modular FIT calculation
for different functional groups).

The BOM Modules view shows you the overall system with the different component groups of your
BOM and Total FIT/ FIT.

  • FIT (Failure in time): This number is calculated from FIT details, temperature profile and mission
    profiles.

  • Total FIT: FIT * Factor = Total FIT
    The number in brackets after modules shows you the number of components in the module. If there
    are components which are not yet connected to a group, the counter after "unassigned" will increase.
    You can create submodules in the same way as creating BOM modules: rightclick on an existing
    assembly group and follow the same steps as shown to create a submodule.

It is not possible to create more than one level of subgroups below an assembly group.
If you import an Excel project with more than one level of submodules, you will get an error
message, and the import will s. If this happens please adapt your BOM Excel data so that there
is no more than one subgroup.


To connect components with an assembly group, right-click on the component, go to Assembly group
and choose the group you need. Another way is to double-click the section in the Assembly group
column of your component. Choose your group from the list as shown in the picture below.
