Project Description
  • Purpose
  • Replace the antiquated procedures in place for
    paper-based drawing release with new procedures
    that utilize the technology of Computer Aided
    Design (CAD).

3
Problem
  • Current work-flow requires the printing of
    hundreds of 24x36 prints every month.
  • Why is this a problem?
  • Time
  • Costs
  • Waste
  • Errors

4
Problem Time
  • The required to print, sign and fold prints
    averages to about 4 minutes per vessel drawing.
  • To issue a drawing the designer must
  • Print Calculations
  • Retrieve Calculations
  • Sign Calculations
  • Group Drawing and Calculations
  • Put in mail-box
  • Send E-mail Notifications
  • Publish a DWF File of Drawing
  • Print Drawing
  • Retrieve Drawing
  • Sign Drawing
  • Fold Drawing

Problem Costs, Waste and Errors
  • Paper (109.50)
  • Ink (230.00)
  • Maintenance
  • The more it is used, the more it breaks.
  • Errors
  • It is difficult to keep drawing users up-to-date
    when drawing revisions are made.
  • Manufacturing a product off of old / incorrect
    drawings.

Methodology
  • Most of the suggested procedure is based on
    knowledge of the software, industry, equipment
    and the needs of the drawings consumers.
  • Research was used as a means to support existing
    ideas and to help develop new ones.
  • Electronic Drawing Release
  • Built-in Functionality
  • DWF File Format

7
New Procedure
  • The suggested procedure reduces the number of
    steps by 50 and the amount of engineering
    department drawing release time by 75.
  • Publish a DWF File of Drawing
  • Stamp Drawing with Signature
  • Publish Calculations
  • Stamp Calculations with Signature
  • Send E-mail Notifications

Conclusion
  • The best solution for drawing release is to
    publish DWF files to a commonly accessible
    network folder.
  • Network permission
  • Password protection for individual files
  • Electronically sign with actual signature
  • E-mail notification of drawing issued
  • Consumer can print as need
