This is a case study in the challenges we faced at Wagstaff in migrating our Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering groups from our legacy custom PDM & document control systems to Teamcenter 8. We’ll address our strategies for data migration, CAD integration, customization, training, and support, as well as the reasons we took the direction we did. Lastly, we’ll talk about how we work with our corporate IT team to implement our methodologies for managing Teamcenter.

1. Adopting and Managing Teamcenter 8 at Wagstaff Rick Stavanja, CAD Manager Dave Stockdale, CAD Support Wagstaff, Inc.

2. Wagstaff - The World Leader in Aluminum Casting Equipment

3. About Wagstaff Wagstaff, Inc., a 63-year-old, Spokane, Washington based manufacturer, provides machinery, technology, and service to enable aluminum producers to transform molten aluminum into solid shapes – “billets” (rounds) and “ingots” (slabs) using “direct chill” casting. Wagstaff develops, engineers, designs, and manufactures sophisticated molds, casting machines, automated systems, and ancillary equipment at our Spokane and Kentucky facilities and has commissioned systems in 54 countries.

4. Session Expectations Attended PLM Connection 2009 Applied for 3 sessions for 2010 Teamcenter is not yet live at Wagstaff Session is a case study of how we got to where we are today in the planning for setup, configuration and deployment of Tc8 Sorry, no code today

5. CAD Administration Group (CADmin) Dept. began in 2007 w/3D CAD Adopted Independent of IT Department Answer to the Engineering Department We are an Engineering-specific IT department 18 mos. ago added Dave Stockdale and took on goal of implementing Teamcenter

6. CADmin Philosophy Make the Right Way the Easy Way

8. AutoCAD for Design

9. UG CAM (Uniapt) for Manufacturing

10. UG CAD for Mold Design (1998)

11. Wagstaff Drawing Management (1994)

12. AutoCAD (.dwg) & UG (.plt)

14. Drawing Control AutoCAD (.dwg) NX (.plt) * Teamcenter

15. Document Control Corporate Documents Legal Docs, Policies, etc. Standards, Practices, etc. Word Documents, Spreadsheets, PDF Files, Flow Charts, etc.

16. Other Wagstaff Corporate Systems Lotus Notes Email CRM/Sales Corporate ‘Intranet’ JDEdwards Corporate ERP BOM Management

17. Other Wagstaff Engineering Tools AutoCAD 2004/2007 SolidWorks Autodesk Inventor EPLAN Flow 6 & Visio Variety of Open Source Tools & Utilities

18. Engineering Department Structure Mechanical Engineering Billet Tables (AutoCAD) Ingot Tables (AutoCAD) Special Products (AutoCAD) Mold Design (NX) Mfg Engineering (NX) R&D (NX, SolidWorks)

19. Existing Folder/File Structures J:lt;Customer> lt;Project> lt;Sub> - XXXYYYAABBCC.prt rawings - XXXYYYAABBCC.prt

20. Wagstaff “Seed” Model Strategy Parametric Models of our Standard Products Use “Expressions” Tied to Spreadsheets Spreadsheets Contain User Inputs for Various Configuration Inputs for the Product Once Parameters are Entered, the User Can Regenerate the Seed Model to Match the Parameters in the Spreadsheet

21. Ingot Mold Seed Model

22. Billet Table Seed Model

23. Seed Model Inventory

24. Teamcenter Strategy/Config Teamcenter 8.1 (Unified) Simple PDM Functionality Only Vaulting but no Workflows Initially No Multi-Site Needs Initially (2-tier only) Initially a Single Volume Server Implement NX Reuse Library IT Mandated Oracle Database ** Sync Revs of Seed Models w/External Configuration Input Spreadsheets

25. Calculating Teamcenter Storage Files in Drawing Management 118897 total files 125433 118,897 discrete part number files 125,433 sum of all files & revisions 1.05 revs/part

26. Teamcenter Storage J: & L: Drives – (NX & AC) Proj. Data, Std Parts 1TB SAN Vol / 580GB Used N: & V: Drives – Personal Data (mod. redundancy) 3TB SAN Vol / 2TB Used Note: Initially, Only Current & New Projects Migrated, Legacy Projects Don’t

27. Live Teamcenter Server Single 2-Tier Server Config 2 Local Drives, 1 SAN Drive C: 70GB D: 300GB E: 1TB (SAN)

28. Deployment Strategy Test 2-Tier Server Config on TCTEST2 Server Test Client Configs in Limited Staged Env. IT Mandates Scripted Installs Currently Basic Teamcenter User Training via Learning Advantage Short PhysicalClass in Wagstaff-Specific Processes Seed Cloning / Reuse Library / Project Release / etc…

29. Deployment & Live Support EngNet will Be Portal for Training and Support Issues Video Library (Wagstaff-specific) Learning Advantage (Generic Teamcenter) EngNet will be hub for CADmin service and system monitoring Log of Update script Execution Logs of trouble tickets User discussion forums

31. Users have access to our growing library of how-to videos

33. Users install & update Teamcenter

34. For now scripted manual installs only

36. Teamcenter Roadmap Migrate Design BOM to Teamcenter & Export it to JDE on release to Mfg Engineering Automate NX Integration Issues Automate some basic Wagstaff-specific tasks in Teamcenter Closer Integration with JDE Begin Adding Basic Workflows

37. PTS: A Simpler NX Seed Model UI
