## Summary

The University of Sheffield is seeking bids for the procurement of a laboratory-scale Reversing Hot Rolling Mill with Run-Out Cooling Facilities. This project, classified under the machinery industry, has a procurement value of £432,000 and is situated in Sheffield, Yorkshire and the Humber region. The procurement follows an open procedure and is now complete, with contracts awarded on 18th December 2017. The original tender period concluded on 17th November 2017, and the contract is set to run from 18th December 2017 to 19th December 2017.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the industrial machinery sector, particularly those specialising in metallurgical equipment. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, given the suitability criteria that favour them. Suppliers capable of meeting the technical specifications related to high-temperature steel and nickel-based alloys, along with manufacturing capabilities for mils capable of substantial separating force, would be ideally positioned to compete for this contract.

## Notice

The Department of Materials Science & Engineering at The University of Sheffield would like to entertain bids on laboratory scale Reversing Hot Rolling Mill with the capacity to cool the as-rolled metal to room temperature using a run-out cooling table. The rolling mill should be able to cope with feedstock metal (specifically steels or Ni-based alloys) at temperatures as high as 1300C and a maximum starting thickness of 80 mm. It should also have a mill separating force capacity of at least 130 metric tonnes.
