## Summary

The University of Warwick is seeking to fulfil a procurement requirement for an Induction Heating System, specifically designed for curing adhesives in composite joints. This procurement falls under the goods category, particularly relevant to the welding equipment industry (CPV code 42662000) and is located in Coventry, West Midlands, United Kingdom. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender was awarded on 22nd December 2015, with the contract period running from 4th December 2015 to 4th December 2016.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in welding equipment and innovative heating systems, particularly those capable of addressing complex multi-material applications in the automotive sector. Companies that offer flexible solutions suitable for both localised adhesive curing and fusion joining processes are especially well-positioned to compete. Given the competitive nature of the open procurement procedure, suppliers that can demonstrate advanced technology and reliability will likely attract the interest of the University of Warwick.

## Notice

The University of Warwick, Warwick manufacturing Group, has a requirement for an Induction Heating System specifically suitable for the curing of adhesives in composite-composite and composite-metal joints. Applicability to creating multi-material automotive body structures including aluminium alloys, steel and fibre reinforced composites is an important consideration. This may include both localised heating to cure adhesives but also heating for fusion joining (for example thermoplastic composite joints). Therefore, flexibility of the proposed induction system is important. Please refer to http://in-tendhost.co.uk/universityofwarwick for further information. You will be able to download the full tender documents from this site. Any queries in relation to this requirement should be directed to the University of Warwick via the correspondence functionality of our e-tendering system. Failure to do so may result in queries being excluded from the procedure. This is a BELOW EU threshold tender. All correspondence regarding this tender procedure should be made through the University of Warwick In-Tend system (https://in-tendhost.co.uk/universityofwarwick) via the "Correspondence" functionality. Failure to do so may result in the correspondence being excluded from the tender procedure. After expressing an interest in this project you will be able to download the full tender document set within 24 hours. All bids must be received by midday 10th November 2015
