## Summary

The National Physical Laboratory is initiating a procurement process for a motorised system titled "PIN - 300kV Filter Wheel Rotation" necessary for the accurate positioning of filtration materials in X-ray applications. This tender falls under the industry category of laboratory and precision equipment and is currently in the planning stage. The contract is expected to commence on 30 June 2021 and conclude by 30 June 2022. Interested parties should note the upcoming notice of procurement, scheduled to be released by 26 May 2021, for further details.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in laboratory equipment, particularly those with experience in motorised systems and filtration technologies. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to compete, given their eligibility, as the National Physical Laboratory seeks to procure innovative solutions to modernise its 300kV X-ray facility. Companies that can offer advanced engineering solutions and effective project delivery within the required timeframe will be well-positioned to succeed in this procurement process.

## Notice

National Physical Laboratory require a motorised system that allows for the selection and to accurately position various filtration material in the path of the X-ray beam to provide the required radiation qualities in use. The filter material has a significant bearing on the characteristics of the resultant X-ray beam. The existing filter wheel system is over 20 years old and approaching end of working life. This device is integral to the 300kV X-ray facility, as are used for all calibration work undertaken on this facility and additional research projects.
