- Description
- ***Amendment 0004 The purpose of this amendment is to incorporate the following: Add Attachment 0006 �Picatinny Environmental Bulletin and Environmental Policy� due to possible issues accessing Picatinny Environmental Management System website referenced in SOW Section 5.1. Provide the following questions and answers from interested vendors: A.� In order to meet the explosion-proof requirements, the system power termination and robot controller need to be installed in a non-hazardous room with cables running to the room with the automation. It is only fair that each company bids to the same cable lengths with how expensive the price per foot is of these special hazardous location cables. This part needs clarification. The arm should be C1D1, the rest of the components can be C2D2. The controller can remain with the arm. Ethernet or Fiber cables providing a remote connection from the main HMI to the control room will be adequate. B. Can Picatinny Arsenal determine what room(s) in the building are considered to be non-hazardous? �Control Room �C. Can that particular non-hazardous room accommodate the power drop and robot controller? Only Ethernet or Fiber is required to run into the control room. D. Out of the four room layouts provided, which room is the closest to this particular non-hazardous room? How far away from each other are these rooms? �250 ft of ethernet or fiber will cover distance between rooms and movement within the rooms. E. How many pieces of tooling are currently being used for each of the pressing, crimping, and seating processes? Pressing � Base, Funnel, Plunger; Crimping � Base, Guide, Rounding Tool, Flat tool; Seating � base, guide, Seating tool. That�s 7 pieces of tooling altogether. F. Is a site visit required to submit an application?We note that the last site visit date was 2/9/2023.�� A site visit is recommended but not required to submit a quote. G. Will any additional site visit dates be provided? No additional site visits will be provided. H. Can you provide photos and/or illustrations of the processing area? Photos of the processing area can be requested by following the instructions in the solicitation. I.� Please confirm � the processing cell dimensions are 8� x 10� and must fit through a 34� doorway�. Yes, that is correct, all pieces of the cell must fit through a standard doorway.�Once assembled the footprint should be roughly 8�x10. ***End of Amendment 0004*** ***Amendment 0003 The purpose of this amendment is to incorporate the following: Add additional and final site visit for February 9, 2023, at 10AM EST. Add date of February 14, 2023, for all questions to be submitted. *****End of Amendment 0003**** ***Amendment 0002 The purpose of this amendment is to incorporate the following: 1) Extend the proposal due date from 8 February 2023 to 22 February 2023 2) update CDRL A001 3) Add five (5) additional drawings (available on request) 4) Apply SOW changes to the following sections: 4.1.6.1, 4.1.6.2, 4.1.6.3, 4.1.6.4, 4.1.6.5, 4.1.6.6, 4.1.6.7, 4.1.6.7.1, 4.1.6.7.2, 4.1.13, 4.1.14, 4.1.14.1, 4.1.14.2, 4.1.15, 4.2.3 and 4.2.4 (see attached updated Attachment 0005_Combo Synopsis and Solicitation for Robotic Fuze for these changes) 5) provide the following questions from interested vendors and answers a. What is the process flow, order of operations for this robotic cell? What portion is automated/what portion is manual? Operator will manually place a mixture loaded tray of unpressed fuzes into robot cell. Robot will pick fuze from tray of empty fuzes and place into press. Press will press powder into fuze. Robot arm will return fuze to a different tray (pressed fuzes) Seating Station (Option): Robot will put primer into a delay tube to a certain depth. Crimping Station (Option): two stage crimp, 1 � curl, 2 � flat Weight station (Option): before and after press, note weight of whole fuze, fuze bodies can be weighed and labeled prior to being used in the cell. We can also just hardcode in a weight for the fuze body Depth station (Option): after press, measure from a reference point on the fuze to the top of the powder in the delay tube b. What is the objective of automating this process? The objective is to improve quality and safety. Since this is an R&D application, production rate is not important, but keeping track of all of our adjustments is. Current production process is 100% manual, produces approx. 30/day. Anything over that is acceptable. c. Does the 8x10 footprint include everything? Robot arm, presses, stations, and trays should be within 8x10 footprint. Any controllers or HMIs can be outside that. d. Are there any entryway requirements? Must fit through 34� door opening for installation. e. Is there a CAD package preference? CREO. f. Is there a control architecture preference? No, but engineers have experience with Allen Bradley. g. When referencing data logging, how many entries/days are required to be stored? All data is required to be stored. This will be a small database. Cardinality ~4000, arity up to 25. h. Are backups for the data required? Cloud backup is not permitted. A local backup for all data is acceptable, such as external HD. i. What are the expectations for safety and explosion proof capabilities? What hazardous class, if any? We are requesting a positive pressure suit or other Hazardous Class 1 Division 1 rated capability for the Robotic Arm but all other components actually can fall under Class 2 Div 2 IAW DA PAM 385-64 Chapter 17. If this were to be a manufacturing facility, Class 1 Div 1 may be required, but transitioning this cell is outside of the scope of this R&D program, therefore we are relaxing to a Class 2 Div 2 requirement. Although we want the operation to be a safe and risk free as possible, the liability actually falls on our facility and infrastructure. j. For the � to � ton press, what increments define fine increments? What unit is that referring to? What is the specific resolution of incremental adjustment of the force the press needs to apply? Are we looking for 5-10lb resolution, or .1 or less pound resolution?� Is a specific resolution going to be required? Stroke displacement � 4th decimal place in inches (caliper accuracy). Force � 10 lb resolution. k. For the press, is the primary objective press force or displacement? Force l. Could the same press be used for all three operations (pressing, seating, crimping)? Yes. Open to interchangeable tooling. m. Is a fire extinguishing system required? No n. What is meant by �Auxiliary equipment for cell observation and operation�? Camera and monitor. Wi-fi connection is not permitted. o. What is meant by �Custom digitally traceable trays�? Note that, through the programming, each fuze body will be addressed to a specific position within each traceable tray, so as long as the part stays in the tray from production up to end use, the fuze body's production records will always be known.� However, if the fuze body comes out of the tray and still needs to be traceable to its production records, then fuze bodies should be individually tracked.� Is it preferred to have each fuze body individually tracked, or as the RFP states, is tracking only required on each tray? The fuze bodies need to be individually traceable, not the trays, and we are open to industry�s suggestions on how to do this. Could be handwritten, stickers, bar code, laser etched, etc. We do need custom trays machined to hold approximately 25 munitions, but these do not need to be traceable. The RFP/SOW has been revised accordingly. The labeling process will be done before energetics are poured into the fuze and placed in the cell. p. Are all three fuze body sizes going to be processed in the same batch, or are the batches only of one size fuze body at a time?� This is to determine whether the trays need to accommodate all three sizes in one universal tray, or if separate trays for each size fuze body are okay. A batch of fuzes will only contain a single type of fuze body at a time. If the tray is able to support fuzes with the longest stem it will be able to support fuzes with the shortest stem since the fuze heads are the same, eliminating the need for multiple tray configurations. q. DI-MGMT-80507C Section 3.17 indicates that man-hours need to be reported.� If this is being offered as a FFP contract, is man-hour reporting still necessary? No, CDRL A001 has been updated accordingly. r. For measuring depth, can it be a mechanical measurement with a probe? Yes, typically we measure it with a caliper and physically touch the material. s. Where is the powder pressed into the fuze? Form factor varies, sometimes powder is in a separate delay tube, sometimes directly into the fuze body. Length of tube and internal diameter of tube varies. t. Does the tooling have to be threaded down to the fuze? No, the threads are for the end item. Tooling will need some kind of pocket not to damage thread. u. Is there requirement for speed of tooling changeover? No, it will be done manually depending on the fuze form factor we are working with. But to reference a question above, if the same press is used for pressing, seating, and crimping this will have to be automated. v. Will the government provide drawings for the interchangeable dies? Yes, but we are also open to a redesign. w. Can you please provide drawings and pictures of the primers, fuzes, plungers, delay tubes, and all items that this system will be handling? Added delay tubes and primers to drawing package. Tooling drawings also added, but tooling may need to be redesigned for automation anyway. x. What are the electrical power requirements? Facility has 120v, 240v, and 480v capabilities. y. SOW says all enhancement(s) (aka options) �shall function independently of each other and any combination of enhancements shall function properly�. This will have implications to the robot programming. Is there a specific sequence to the enhancements? The government wants the flexibility to perform any enhancement operations in any order. If an option/enhancement is not part of the cell, it can be omitted from the programming and that operation will continue to be done manually. z. Can the government elaborate on the mobile stand requirement? We would like the robot arm and control panel on a semi-permanent mobile pedestal. Meaning we can pin it in place for the pressing application where everything will consistently be in the same place, but in the future would be able to relocate it for a different application. aa. At the site visit, offerors were shown a remote control room with a large display and there was discussion of the ability to remotely monitor and control the cell, but the RFP does not present remote monitoring/operation from a separate room as a requirement.� Will you revise the RFP to add this requirement? Remote operations from another room are not a requirement but the HMI should be accessible outside the footprint of the cell. For example if the cell is on one side of a blast wall we need the capability to be able to operate it from the other side of the blast wall. ab. Can existing floor plan of the room be provided? Several rooms were identified as options.� If floor plans are provided, offerors can make recommendations for which room to select to best suit their proposal. Yes, basic floor plans have been added to the solicitation package. *****End of Amendment 0002**** ***Amendment 0001 - The purpose of Amendment 0001 to Solicitation W15QKN-23-Q-0S2S is to add February 1, 2023 at 10 AM EST as an additional date and time for interested vendors to attend the site visit at Picatinny Arsenal.
