They have released a tender titled "AEMRI-261-VPM - Vessel Plate Materials" for the supply of raw profiled materials for the construction of pressure vessels for Hydrogen Service. The tender falls under the goods category and is open for participation until 20th October 2022. The award period ends on 31st October 2022. This tender by TWI Ltd presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in materials such as steel, aluminium, profile sections, and profiles. Companies with expertise in supplying materials for high-performance applications in sectors like green energy and nuclear fabrication would be well-suited to compete in this procurement process. The initiative, funded by the Welsh European Funding Office (WEFO) using European Regional Development Funds (ERDF), aims to advance engineering materials research and create a unique facility for testing materials' performance limits. ## Notice TWI is one of the world's foremost independent research and technology organisations, with expertise in solving problems in all aspects of manufacturing, fabrication and whole-life integrity management technologies.Established in Cambridge, UK in 1946 and with facilities across the globe, the company has a first class reputation for service through its teams of internationally respected consultants, scientists, engineers and support staff, whose knowledge and expertise is available to its Industrial Members as and when they require.This specification has been produced as part of an initiative known as AEMRI (Advanced Engineering Materials Research Institute), which is funded by the Welsh European Funding Office (WEFO) using European Regional Development Funds (ERDF). AEMRI seeks to create a unique facility housing a critical mass of equipment, expertise and resources. AEMRI provides an environment to test and prove the limits of performance of advanced materials. Through the use of advanced modelling and simulation methods, full, large-scale mechanical test structures will be designed and built upon finite element analysis (FEA) calculations. Advanced, automated non-destructive evaluation (NDE) techniques will be developed with the aim of saving the industry time and production costs as well as minimising the risk of catastrophic structural failures.AEMRI will deliver the objectives of the project through the following four technical strands:-- Modelling and Simulation of High Performance Materials and Structures.- Advanced Robotic Inspection of Complex Geometry Structures.- Inspection Systems for Very Large Structures for the Green Energy Sector.- Nuclear Fabrication Research Centre.TWI would like to be supplied with raw profiled materials for the construction of pressure vessels for Hydrogen Service.
