- Description
- US ARMY Joint Munitions & Lethality Life Cycle Command, Picatinny Arsenal,Picatinny, NJ is seeking sources capable of providing equipment to monitor the degree of compaction, density and defects during pressing operations of explosive molding powders for detonators. The equipment must use sensors installed on the punch and die that are explosion proof (or intrinsically safe), operator friendly, and non-destructive. The press will be used to optimize the system for material property measurement and defect characterization. Also, the equipment must measure in real time, at a high rate, and relay the information back to an operator display system. The equipment should be able to measure the following properties: density, voids & cracks, and foreign matter. Calibration of the equipment will allow the analyzer readings to be converted to average density readings at one or more locations along the detonator cup. Interested firms who believe they are capable of supplying a product of this type that meets or exceeds the capabilities delineated above are invited to indicate their interest by providing specifications, brochures, and/or drawings, company name, address, point of contact and email address. This announcement does not constitute an invitation for bids or a request for proposal, nor is it to be construed as a commitment by the Government. All information is to be submitted at no cost or obligation to the Government. The Government is not obligated to notify respondents of the results of this announcement. Interested sources should submit the requested information via email not later than 14 July 2008 to JM&L, LCMC Acquisition Center, Attn.: Margaret B. Reed, Contract Specialist, margaret.b.reed@us.army.mil.
