Improving screw compressor rotors – a collaboration of manufacturing and design engineers.

Résumé

Bringing a product to market is a complex process involving many disciplines. It starts with the product’s application – the customer’s requirements. These are captured in specifications which design and development efforts are undertaken to meet. Subsequently, the product is manufactured, shipped, and installed where its success, or lack thereof, in meeting customer requirements is revealed.
This process can be run by departments within one company or through interactions of several companies. Steps might be completed sequentially, a process often referred to as “over-the-wall.” Practices embodied in Concurrent Engineering (CE), Design for Manufacturing (DfM), Integrated Design and Manufacturing (IDM), etc. have been developed to address over-the-wall issues and all call for better communication and overlap of tasks.
Our story is about an international collaboration on screw compressor development, with one party responsible for design, the other integral to its production. It began in seeing problems with the over-the-wall approach. The story is not about using CE, DfM, or IDM. Rather, it evolved as we addressed unique issues with open minds, sharing knowledge and asking questions which led to a rethink for both parties. In this presentation, we will share results that made a difference to our firms and to us individually. Our intent is to encourage others to promote and seek innovative, organizationally appropriate, effective ways to build collaborations which integrate design and manufacturing. Further, we hope that these short bits might spark academia and technical conference organizers to engage and encourage in development and sharing ideas in this vein.
