Notice Description

National Manufacturing Institute of Scotland (NMIS) require a cryogenic material tester for superconductors to perform tensile testing on superconducting cables under electrical load.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The University require notes of interest for the below potential tender opportunity. National Manufacturing Institute of Scotland (NMIS) require a cryogenic material tester for superconductors. This equipment is required to perform tensile testing on superconducting cables under electrical load. The testing needs to cover tensile with a temperature range of Room Temperature down to 4 Kelvin. The machine also needs to be able to perform tensile and compression testing on non superconductor samples from RT to 4 Kelvin. High level requirements: - must be able to test both superconductors and perform tensile testing of regular material samples - must have the ability to perform tensile testing of superconducting tapes, cylindrical and dog-bone samples - must have the ability to accurately measure temperature and control the temperature ramp rate of 2K/minute covering the 4 Kelvin to room temperature range - must be able to test superconducting materials under electrical load of 1000A DC
