  1. The Benefit of Simultaneous Engineering • At least 95% of the Total Life Cycle Cost are determined during the Concept & Design phase of a project, therefore the more experienced people you have involved at that phase, the more opportunity you have to reduce your Total Life Cycle Cost.

  2. Role of a Simultaneous Engineering Partner • Introduce Customers To The Various Technologies And Layouts Used Today In The U.S. And The Rest Of The World. • Become The Main Contact For The Machine Tool Builders Regarding Coolant And Chip Handling • Present And Evaluate The Various Alternatives Available To The Customer • Develop A Plant Wide Plan For Coolant Filtration and Chip Handling • Develop Specifications/Specification Adherence

  3. The Simultaneous Engineering Process • Define program objectives • Identifying and defining strategies and equipment to meet the program objectives • Evaluate the strategies and equipment identified • Specifications

  4. Examples of Coolant Filtration Objectives • Reliability and maintainability • Flexibility • Simplicity/User Friendly • Performance • Reducing disposable media consumption • Value engineering

  5. Prioritizing Objectives • Once objectives are identified they must be prioritized. • Some objectives may be mutually exclusive.

  6. Identifying and Defining Strategies and Equipment • The S.E. partner will collect the pertinent information from the appropriate machine tool vendors in order to size the equipment • The customer and the S.E. partner will list various methods available to meet the program’s objectives • The customer and the S.E. partner will decide which alternatives merit further definition • The S.E. partner will then prepare flow schematics and proposal drawings of the various strategies defined

  7. Evaluation of the Alternatives • T-charts listing advantages and disadvantages of the options • Budget Pricing • Life Cycle Cost Analysis • Benchmarking/Plant Visits • Reliability and Maintainability • FMEA

  8. Results of the Process • Equipment specifications for the strategy selected

  9. Deliverables • Machine Tool Coolant Requirement Data Sheets • Detailed Coolant System Requirements • Evalutions: drawings, budgets, LCC, FMEA, R&M, and T-charts • Equipment Specifications

  10. Why is Zealtek your best choice as a S. E. Partner • Objectivity • Resources • Experience • Creativity / Diverse Product Knowledge • Performance • Price Competitiveness

  11. Objectivity • Zealtek is not constrained to one or two methods for coolant filtration or chip handling.
