EDMS/MTF for RF structures Design side(EDMS)= Items – Structure – Drawings – 3D models – Parameters – Links to documents Physical manufacturing side(MTF) = Equipment – Structure of assembly – Main – Made of – Equipment data – Manufacturing Workflow steps – Quality control – Installation – Documents(links) Design side(EDMS)= Items – Structure – Drawings – 3D models – Parameters – Links to documents Physical manufacturing side(MTF) = Equipment – Structure of assembly – Main – Made of – Equipment data – Manufacturing Workflow steps – Quality control – Installation – Documents(links)
Project structures in EDMS Project breakdown The project consists of its related sub-projects Outline attached documentation – What to build or buy for a certain project Can simplify group information that belongs together Project breakdown The project consists of its related sub-projects Outline attached documentation – What to build or buy for a certain project Can simplify group information that belongs together Document : Planning of Project 3 Document : Specification of Project 3
Bill of Materials - BOMs in EDMS Document : Assembly drawing Document : Assembly 3D CAD model Assembly breakdown Can be seen as the outcome of a project -Describes how to build something Attached documentation contains all necessary information about product manufacturing Assembly breakdown Can be seen as the outcome of a project -Describes how to build something Attached documentation contains all necessary information about product manufacturing
Item structure - BOMs Each item represents design of a component or an assembly Item structure illustrates what components and how many of each are needed for an assembly The parts list(Bill Of Material) can be found on an assembly drawing Each item represents design of a component or an assembly Item structure illustrates what components and how many of each are needed for an assembly The parts list(Bill Of Material) can be found on an assembly drawing

Different structures during project lifecycle
Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) PLM = EDMS at CERN
PLM in RF structure development Documentation already available in EDMS/other systems Needed an integrated interface for simplifying data management Collecting data from several databases and systems not efficient Demand for easier access to information about RF-structures’ PLM Documentation already available in EDMS/other systems Needed an integrated interface for simplifying data management Collecting data from several databases and systems not efficient Demand for easier access to information about RF-structures’ PLM
Equipment Management Folder (MTF) The computerized version of the paper folder accompanying any equipment being built Provides traceability of large quantities of parts manufactured in a geographically distributed environment A wide range of data such as manufacturing procedures have to be stored and retrieved – General data but also very specific properties of the individual equipment The computerized version of the paper folder accompanying any equipment being built Provides traceability of large quantities of parts manufactured in a geographically distributed environment A wide range of data such as manufacturing procedures have to be stored and retrieved – General data but also very specific properties of the individual equipment

Identification of equipment Prefix controlled by the EDMS Team. Identifier managed by each project/machine/experiment. Examples of prefixes: HC- Large Hadron Collider 10- Alice 20- Atlas 3%- CMS ZZ- Off-the-shelf components not specific to a single project/experiment. CR- Manufactured components not specific to a specific project/experiment.

Future prospects Different BOM Manual re-writing of large amount of data is a source of errors Tree structure becomes complicated for complex equipments Guideline on how to search information through EDMS/MTF Data security Change of data belonging to other users is possible in some cases
Future prospects Slow response time of EDMS Use of off-online tools Training for MTF users is necessary Quality of data before is made available to users Better coordination is needed Project engineer has to ensure that all the needs in data of the user of his equipment are taken care of
