This project, the Enterprise Engineering and Optics Centre (EEOC), is a key project to be delivered as part of the North Wales Growth Deal (now Ambition North Wales). The aim of the North Wales Growth Deal is to build a more vibrant, sustainable, and resilient economy in North Wales, building on our strengths to boost productivity while tackling long-term challenges and economic barriers to delivering inclusive growth. It involves a new purpose-built engineering building of approximately 2,187M2 to be constructed at the Wrexham Plas Coch campus of the University. The Growth Deal is a partnership between the public sector and the private sector, supported by funding from UK Government and Welsh Government. The UK Government and Welsh Government are investing GBP240million into the North Wales Growth Deal over the next 15 years. The Growth Deal is seeking to deliver a total investment of up to 1.1bn GBP in the North Wales economy (240m GBPfrom the Growth Deal), to create 3,400 - 4,200 net additional jobs and generate 2.0- 2.4 billion GBP in net additional GVA. This procurement project covers item a 4D Technology PhaseCam 6010, which is a newer version of our PhaseCam 6000, but fully compatible with existing optical accessories, mounting features and geometry. This is a dynamic Twyman-Green Interferometer for metrology of precision optical surfaces and systems in a production environment (i.e., in the presence of environmental noise- vibration/air turbulence etc.). We propose to purchase a 4D Technology PhaseCam 6010, which is a newer version of our PhaseCam 6000, but fully compatible with existing optical accessories, mounting features and geometry. This is a dynamic Twyman-Green Interferometer for metrology of precision optical surfaces and systems in a production environment (i.e., in the presence of environmental noise- vibration/air turbulence etc.). Specification This requirement includes all necessary fore-optics, ancillary hardware and attachments (e.g. cables and adapters, desktop PC, operating software) that enable the instrument to fulfil the technical requirements listed herein. The following requirements are specified: Deployable Twyman-Green interferometer Vibration insensitive dynamic Stabilised HeNe source laser @ 632.8 High res 4MP, 12-bit camera Performance - <0.001 wv RMS repeatability, <0.002 wv RMS precision Compatible with diverger lenses from F/1 to F/32 Minimum exposure 30usec Must conform to ISO/MIL texture standards Capable of automated (i.e. robotic) deployment Operating Software, cables and PC
Procurement Information
As per Regulation 32 of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 (the use of a negotiated procedure without prior publication), the University justification for a single tender approval is based on ii. the goods, services or works can only be provided by a particular contractor for reasons that are technical, artistic, or connected with the protection of exclusive rights. AND ix. "that goods are required as a partial replacement or addition to existing goods or installations and obtaining them from another contractor would result in incompatibility or disproportionate technical difficulties in operation or maintenance. The University currently has 2 working 4D Technology interferometers. It is important that any new interferometer is compatible with these for the following reasons: Accessories such as compatible diverger lenses which the University already has an inventory of these in stock which are high value items. In the event of a different manufacturer supplying the equipment these high value lenses would become obsolete. The interface and footprint of interferometers are unique to the manufacturer, obtaining an interferometer from another manufacturer would cause incompatibility or disproportionate technical difficulties in operation. For example, the common physical dimensions and mounting features already in place will ensure compatibility and interchangeability with existing metrology setups and fixturing, mitigating the risk to commercial contracts from any instrument failure or maintenance requirements. A common software platform is already in place based on the 4D Technology interferometer software specification. This existing software is well understood and an extensive library of in-house software has been developed to enhance its capabilities in accordance with the particular requirements of individual commercial projects.
