Summary
The opportunity NB642040-25-01993 involves the replacement of the Forming Limit Machine controller at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, Maryland. The existing controller, which is over 25 years old, is broken and irreparable, necessitating the installation of a new controller to restore the functionality of the hydraulic actuator forming machine. This project is critical for the NIST Center for Automotive Lightweighting, which conducts essential tests on sheet metals to support the automotive industry. Contractors with expertise in manufacturing and installing measuring and controlling devices, particularly those familiar with the specifications of the Instron 8804 machine, are encouraged to bid on this opportunity. The work will require a clear demonstration of capability through documentation and previous installation examples, as outlined in the statement of work.
