Analysis of Failure Rate of a Product by using Bathtub-Curve

In this study analyzing the failure rate of a product by using BATHTUB-CURVE. This Bathtub- curve sets an expectation for how a product typically performs over its life cycle. It also represents the failure rate of a product over the time.The early failures of the product have been identified and this can be overcome by conducting accurate inspections and by increasing the inspection levels. Proper maintenance should be done at the right time to reduce and overcome from the failures. Suitable methodology has been framed to overcome the problems that are raised by the customers and possible improvements are observed in product life cycle.
