- Description
- ***The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), with Heidenhain Corporation for the purchase of one (1) ROD 850 rotation measuring encoder, one (1) RON 806 rotation measuring encoder and, the necessary accessories to incorporate the equipment into NIST?s existing two axis high resolution rotation stage goniometer assembly.****** The requested Heidenhain ROD 850 and RON 806 will be mounted into an existing goniometer assembly. The current structure is designed with the inclusion of optical encoders of this dimension to be included. The Heidenhain optical encoders use a proprietary 11 micro-A encoding signal which will interface with counter/interpolation controllers currently in operation in NIST?s laboratory allowing for cross calibration of goniometer assemblies. The "in-house" fabrication assembly design relies on the mounting of A ROD 850 for the first axis, and a RON 806 for the second rotation axis to meet our accuracy and mounting dimension requirements. Only the equipment available from Heidenhain can ensure 100% compatibility and interchangeability with the existing Heidenhain interpolation electronics. NIST currently has several Heidenhain interpolation electronics, AWE 1024 and IK 320, which take only 11 microA peak to peak signals. The IK 320 is a custom, R&D grade interpolator not available to retail clients acquired through prior collaboration on the high resolution system. It is NIST?s intention to use these high accuracy interpolators in system calibration with this new diffractometer assembly. ******Delivery shall be FOB Destination, Gaithersburg, MD, and is required within 120 days after receipt of order.******The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 333314, and the size standard is 500 employees.******No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, the Government will consider responses received by May 5, 2004.******A determination by the Government not to compete the proposed acquisition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.***Any questions/concerning regarding this notice should be forwarded in writing via e-mail to the Purchasing Agent, Joni L. Laster @ joni.laster@nist.gov***
