The University of Portsmouth is seeking Teaching equipment for a newly established Robotics and Automation laboratory. This is to support delivery and practical work associated with various modules in the broader robotics and automation subject area. Robotics and automation teaching equipment is envisaged to support the delivery of various modules across several levels of study (undergraduate and postgraduate). The lab needs to be equipped with a range of contemporary industrial robots, with integrated controllers and variable degrees of freedom, as well as allowing students to have hands-on experience in control systems and sensor equipment. A flexible manufacturing system with high layout flexibility, which can be easily expanded, is invaluable for experimentation and project-based learning. Delivery, installation and training are anticipated to take place in approx January-March 2024. This tender is in 4 Lots Lot 1 - Flexible manufacturing/automation system Lot 2 - Robots/Robot arms Lot 3 - Sensors teaching equipment Lot 4 - Control systems teaching equipment Note: Each lot will be awarded individually.
