Extend Your Prediction Capabilities with Relex

Relex Reliability Prediction offers distinct advantages in analytical capabilities. In addition to supporting all globally accepted reliability models, Relex allows you to mix and match these models to produce the most accurate results. Because of Relex's uniquely integrated approach, you can select the model most appropriate to each portion of your design, providing you with unmatched modeling potential.

Reliability prediction techniques encompass a broad range of standards and statistical models. By incorporating all globally accepted standards, Relex Software offers the most comprehensive prediction package in the world. Relex Reliability Prediction supports MIL-HDBK-217, Telcordia (Bellcore) SR-332, NSWC Mechanical, PRISM, CNET 93, HRD5, Chinese 299B, and RDF 2000. Relex Reliability Prediction incorporates these standards and provides the most accurate results in the industry. In addition, the engine performs reliability allocation calculations, supports derating analysis, and provides a visual report designer to display your results in an informative and professional style.

Unsurpassed Data Entry Features

The user-friendly Relex interface makes data entry a simple, intuitive process. As you enter your product information, Relex prompts you for all required parameters, providing choice lists and validating entries. Relex Reliability Prediction packages support a wide array of electronic and mechanical components, software models, and user-defined components.

Putting Results at Your Fingertips

Relex Reliability Prediction puts a virtual equipment testing lab at your fingertips. You can use Relex to quickly run design trade studies or "what-if?" calculations. Relex supports mission calculations, determining MTBF analysis results based on the entire mission or a particular mission phase. Relex also supports reliability allocation calculations, optimally weighting MTBF portions across your system. Relex calculations can also account for dormant and active cycles. These unmatched capabilities take your prediction analyses to the next level by offering functionality beyond the basic prediction modeling techniques.

Once your reliability and MTBF analysis is complete, Relex Reliability Prediction can report your findings in a compelling, professional format. The Relex Graph Wizard lets you choose from a wide array of 2D or 3D graphing combinations and a host of ready-made report templates. Customize the size, axes, title, and color scheme of your graphs, as well as the data fields, layout, and visual elements in your printed reliability and MTBF reports. The Relex Visual Report Designer can transform your analysis results into professional, easy-to-interpret graphical and tabular reports suitable to include in any documentation set, audit, or web site. The impressive reliability and MTBF reports and graphs put Relex in a class by itself!

Integration Makes Your Job Easier

The common database that all Relex modules are built around allows the modules to dynamically share data and update results as values are modified. This means that the failure rate calculation of components computed by Relex Reliability Prediction can be used in Relex FMEA to automatically compute mode failure rates. Or, you can use these failure rate calculations for components in Relex RBD to account for the predicted failure rate in your reliability and availability results. This unique level of integration is one of the most widely praised Relex innovations.

Relex Reliability Prediction and MTBF software provides accurate, consistent, and efficient reliability prediction analyses. The comprehensive analysis options, customization potential, and seamless integration with the entire Relex product line give you the power to improve your product design, streamline your system architecture, and produce more reliable products with confidence.
