Cross-Team Collaboration We worked closely with many different parties to accomplish our deliverables. We worked with Matt Green from Weir El Reno and Varun Inamdar from Weir Eng. & Sci. to execute the industry standard reengineering project and engineering drawings. We also worked closely with RCD2 and RCD3 by sharing our models and drawings.

Problem Description
Data Collection
Analysis & Prototype
Models & Drawings
• Photographs • APS Process Records
• Material Analysis • Hand Sketches
• SolidWorks Models • Engineering Drawings
Weir Pressure Control (WPC) had determined to design, test and launch a Low Pressure to Intermediate Pressure Rotating Control Device (RCD) for managed pressure drilling. This new product initiative required an RCD Re-Engineering Project. Our group's deliverables were the following: • Global Engineering Collaboration • Disassembly and Measurements • SolidWorks Model Creation • SolidWorks Drawing Creation
Advanced Parts Solutions (APS) Process Data Collection
• SolidWorks Models Models & • Engineering Drawings
• Material Analysis Analysis & • Hand Sketches
• Photographs • APS Process Records
Drawings
Prototype
• Take APS standard Pictures. (Place Component between two rulers.) • Record state of RCD to check for wear and tear.
• Using hand sketches, develop SolidWorks models • Create engineering drawings from SolidWorks models
• Understand how components were manufactured • Draw hand sketches • Record measured dimensions

Closing Remarks
We have helped to produce a set of drawings that will help Weir to better use their RCDs. Weir will use these drawings to find cheaper parts for their RCDs. By measuring and analyzing the construction of the RCD, we learned how it was designed and assembled; this helped us to make drawings that are easier to reproduce an RCD from. By collaborating with a cross-team capstone project we learned how to communicate and work with diverse group of people; this helped us to work with the needs of all the teams rather than just ours.
