Notice Title
9003983 - Supply of the APPLE-II Undulator for I08
Notice Description
Located on the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus in Oxfordshire, Diamond Light Source (DLS) is a leading-edge facility for science, engineering and innovation. Diamond allows researchers from academia and industry to investigate the structure and behaviour of the world around us at the atomic and molecular level. To continue delivering the world-changing science that Diamond enables, the facility is being upgraded to Diamond-II, a co-ordinated programme of development that combines a major machine upgrade with new instruments and complementary improvements to optics, detectors, sample environment and delivery capabilities, and computing, as well as integrated and correlative methods. This will be transformative in speed and spatial resolution and will offer users streamlined access to enhanced instruments for life and physical sciences. The scope of the contract is to the design, manufacture, test and delivery to DLS of one complete eight axes out-of-vacuum APPLE-II undulator, subject to the performance specification, together with all the necessary drawings and documentation to ensure the insertion device (ID) can be operated and maintained without supplier support if necessary
