Line 8:
Every product has a [[failure rate]], λ which is the number of units failing per unit time. This failure rate changes throughout the life of the product. It is the [[manufacturer]]’s aim to ensure that product in the “infant mortality period” does not get to the [[customer]]. This leaves a product with a useful life period during which failures occur randomly i.e., λ is constant, and finally a wear-out period, usually beyond the products useful life, where λ is increasing.
