A -- DIAMOND WIRE CUTTING OF THE TFTR TOROIDAL FIELD COIL CUTTING MOCKUP SOL 95-067K DUE 041195 POC Michael Karl, (609) 243-2076, Subcontract Administrator A -- DIAMOND WIRE CUTTING OF THE TFTR TOROIDAL FIELD COIL CUTTING MOCK-UP. The Princeton University Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) seeks interested and qualified small businesses (SBs) capable of demonstrating diamond wire cutting technology. The applicable SIC is 3541, Machine Tools, Metal Cutting Types, and the applicable size standard is 500 employees. Specifically, PPPL is interested in subcontracting with a small business to perform a documented test using diamond wire cutting technology. The test will involve cutting a mock-up of the TFTR Toroidal Field (TF) Coil and Coil Case. The TF Coil Cutting Mock-up has a square cross section. The center of the section contains the conductor portion of an actual TFTR TF Coil. The conductor portion consists of two columns of Oxygen Free Copper conducting bars. Each bar is surrounded by glass reinforced epoxy and has a center cooling channel. The conductor portion is encased with 2.44 inch thick Nitronic 33 plate. Results of the test will be used for the TFTR Shutdown and Removal (S&R) engineering and planning effort for vacuum vessel segmentation. Specific requirements are set forth in RFP No. 95-067K. The anticipated release date for the solicitation package is March 14, 1995. Subcontract award is to take place in May, 1995, subject to the availability of funds.
