2.  Faculty Technical Advisor:  Dr. Kambiz Farhang  Team Members:  Seth Carter, ME (PM) ▪ Valve & Bolt System  James Morrow, ME ▪ Marker Body  Bryson Orr, ME ▪ Feed System  Client:  Jake Myers, Owner of Saltfork Paintball

3.  Executive Summary (SC)  Project Background  List of Deliverables  Discussion  Literature Review Summary (BO)  Project Description (BO)  Plan to Complete Project (JM) ▪ AIL ▪ RASI Chart ▪ Spring Timeline  Resources Needed (JM)  Summary (SC)

4.  Upgrade Industry Standard  Industry standard is outdated  Players demand better performance  Combine Best Components  Rare valve/feed system combination  Less than $250 in material costs

5.  Deliverables:  Drawings and FEA data  Working Prototype  Prototype Test Data  Manual

6.  Overview of Rules and Regulations for Play  Maximum Paintball Velocity 300 ft/s (FPS)  Semi-Automatic  Types of Paintball Markers  Poppit Valve  Spool Valve  Types of Feed Systems  Gravity ▪ Maximum 8 paintballs per second (BPS)  Agitated ▪ Maximum 12-15 BPS  Force Feed ▪ 15+ BPS

7.  Players Needs  Accuracy  Reliability  Speed  Weight  Price  Owners Needs  Durability  Reliability  Maintenance Time  Maintenance Cost  Clients Solution  Tippmann 98 Custom

8.  Create a marker that satisfies the players wishes while meeting Saltfork Paintball’s needs.  Spool Valve  Increases Accuracy  Integrated Mechanical Force Feed System  Increases Speed while keeping Maintenance Time and Cost Low.  Frame Size and Material  Stress Analysis to Reduce Frame Size, Decreases Weight
