Statement of requirements for Collaborative Robotics

Notice Description

The requirement is for a collaborative robotic arm (cobot) which is designed specifically for human/robot interaction, without the need for protective devices. The cobot will be capable of carrying out repetitive/assistive tasks in an industrial manufacturing SME environment. It will have sufficient sensors on the cobot to ensure that the cobot doesn't cause injury to its human colleagues. Tasks required to be undertaken include, but are not limited to: CNC machine loading/tending Testing Inspection Cleaning Packaging Manoeuvring of components Deburring Specification The cobot is required to have: Minimum payload of 10 kgs Minimum reach of 1300mm Certifications EN ISO 13849-1, EN ISO 10218-1 and PLd Category 3 Mounting capability within any orientation End effectors in the form of grippers or similar modules IP Rating sufficient to be capable of working in contact with CNC cutting fluids Power supply 240V AC 50 Hz UK 3 pin Teach pendant and appropriate software in order to be able to program Control Box It is a condition that the item quoted for is collaborative, which means that it must contain torque sensors with such sensitivity to recognise when a human is present during a move, and if collision occurs, the arm will halt. Quotations submitted must advise the following additional information applicable to the cobot they are offering against: Degrees of freedom and Number of rotating joints Power supply voltage Power consumption maximum average Repeatability (defined/measured in +/0mm) Axis range in degrees & max speeds per second, per joint Noise in dBA Colours available Anticipated lifespan Footprint Tooling back end type Cable lengths IP Ratings for cobot, teach pendant and control box Additional benefits Additional Safety certifications Weight Footprint End Effector Integration information Supply imagery of article being offered Ease of setup Integration opportunities with other technologies (number & ease) Physical interface (useability/longevity/aesthetics) Warranty period Maintenance / calibration requirements Quantity : 2 off system Questions should be sent to Amy Taylor. This can be done by e-mailing amy@mhde.co.uk . All questions and answers will be made public. The deadline for questions will be 19th September 2021. Questions and answers will be posted on www.mhde.co.uk The delivery of goods must be supplied and invoiced by no later than Friday 3rd December 2021. Information on scoring criteria are all contained within the pdf attachment. Additional information: Scored Criteria for this RFQ and respective weightings: Price = 25% Quality = 25% Specification = 25% Useability = 25% Scoring Mechanism tables can be found on pages 3,4&5 of the pdf file attached to this notice.
