Incorporating Questions & Responses
Question I - Can you please confirm that integration of the X-ray system will occur at the customer site after the DED machine installation and acceptance? Further, while the DED original equipment manufacturer (OEM) may provide support, responsibility for installation of x-ray related equipment will be borne by personnel other than the DED OEM?
Yes, the source and detector will be external to the system. As long as the system meets the control and geometric constraints as laid out in the solicitation/SOR then the NIST team will be responsible for further integration. This integration will occur after installation/acceptance.
Question II - Will a stage positional repeatability of +/- 5 micron rather than +/- 1 micron be considered?
Yes this will be considered. Please document clearly.
Question - III - Is there a latency requirement for the real-time telemetry with the DED machine control system?
Some amount of latency is acceptable, on the order of 100 ms, however we require high accuracy in that latency of Question IV - Can the control interface use 24VDC logic rather than typical 2-5VDC TTL level?
The logic system at the beamline is 5V TTL based, as such we have a strong preference for 5V logic but we will consider systems with 12 VDC or 24 VDC communication systems.
Question V - Can you provide references to literature that demonstrate the ability to change composition within the stated accuracy using multiple powder feeders and dynamic mixing?
We are not aware of published literature that directly demonstrates the ability to change composition within the stated ±10% accuracy, using multiple powder feeders and dynamic mixing, in the exact configuration described in the SOR. This is an innovative capability we are seeking through this procurement. Vendors are encouraged to propose their best technical solution to meet this requirement and to provide any supporting evidence, pr... - Documents :
