## Summary

The University of Sheffield's Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) has initiated an open tender for the procurement of a form-wound coil manufacturing suite valued at £450,000. This requirement, classified under CPV code 42419900, pertains to parts of winding gear and other lifting or handling equipment needed for the manufacturing of precision preformed coils for high-performance electrical machines. The tender period is set to close on 16 August 2022, with the bid opening scheduled for the same day at the AMRC's location in Catcliffe, Rotherham.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in advanced manufacturing and engineering, particularly those specialising in winding machinery, coil production, and electrical components. Companies that can demonstrate capability in producing precision equipment or utilise innovative production techniques are encouraged to participate. Given the AMRC's focus on prototyping and development work, suppliers ready to adapt to scaling requirements and offer bespoke solutions will find this tender particularly relevant for growth in the sector.

## Notice

The AMRC has a requirement for equipment to manufacture precision preformed coils for high-performance electrical machines for use in prototyping and development work. By way of indication, the suite of equipment might include a linear winding machine, coil stretching/shaping machine, and presses for shaping and consolidating resin-rich taped coils.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The AMRC has a requirement for equipment to manufacture precision preformed coils for high-performance electrical machines for use in prototyping and development work. By way of indication, the suite of equipment might include a linear winding machine, coil stretching/shaping machine, and presses for shaping and consolidating resin-rich taped coils. Whilst capability exists in industry to produce such pre-formed coils upwards of around 0.5 m to several metres long, the current requirements demand the same control over geometry on coils from tens to several hundred millimetres in length. This scaling down of the coil sizes could be achieved through appropriate scaling of existing pre-formed coil equipment designs and/or from the adoption of alternative techniques such as direct winding to shape.
