## Summary

The Dumfries and Galloway Council has initiated a planned procurement process for Cobot End Effectors in Dumfries, UK. The procurement stage is currently in the planning phase, with a future notice date of 14th October 2022. The industry category for this tender is goods, and interested parties can find more details on the Public Contracts Scotland website.

This tender for Cobot End Effectors by Dumfries and Galloway Council presents an opportunity for businesses in the engineering and production sectors to showcase solutions that complement the COBOTs' capabilities for machine tending duties. Small and medium enterprises looking to scale up their business through innovative equipment and technology are well-suited to compete in this demonstration line procurement process.

## Notice

In this instance, AIMS is looking for solutions that would compliment the range of end-effectors, workpiece magazines , workpiece sorters and workpiece presenters and other ancillary equipment to enable our COBOTs to perform machine tending duties. Currently, the AIMS project has several Universal Robotics UR10e's available to preform such duties, but lack the ancillary equipment to sort and feed workpieces into a machine-tool (such as a press-brake). Furthermore, we require the equipment to present the parts to the COBOT and then into the machine-tool. This is a demonstration line, and not intended for full industrial production, but a flexible showcase, set up to inspire small and medium engineering / production enterprises to scale up their business.
