  The Notice ID is FA700024AFTS and shall be used to reference any written response to this Sources Sought. United States Air Force Academy anticipates a requirement that is being considered under a small business set-aside program. For the purpose of this acquisition, the anticipated North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) is 334519, Other Measuring and Controlling Device manufacturing and the size standard is 600 employees.
  The purchase of two Annular Force/Torque Sensors is required to test parachute lines in the wind tunnel. The sensors need to be strong and accurate because tension in the line can be high while the sensor measures small side forces. These devices are crutial for the Department of Aeronautics to gather data to support research projects.
  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  The necessary salient characteristics for Two Annular Force/Torque Sensors are listed below:
  - 6 Axis.
  - 19.6 mm-diameter hole in the middle the force/torque sensor that allow the parachute line we are testing to pass through it, and the hole needs to be this size or bigger.
  - 8-lb range for forces.
  - 4-in-lbs range for torque.
  - Thin design, 15 mm or below that allows us to mount the sensor outside the wind tunnel and avoid flow interference.
  - Sensor also must mount annularly.
  - Power supply for Sensors.
  - Data acquisition linkages needed to connect the sensor to data acquisitio...
