On behalf of the Ground Vehicle Systems Center’s Materials Directorate – Additive Manufacturing Team (GVSC MD AM), ACC-DTA is conducting market research to understand capabilities related to the below requirement: Scope: This supplies Performance Work Statement (PWS) establishes the requirements for one Direct Metal Printing (DMP) Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) Equipment for the GVSC MD AM Team.
OpportunityCanada Agreement Type Tender TypeRequest for Proposal (RFP) Estimated Value Solicitation MethodOpen Laser Powder Bed Fusion Metal 3D Printing System The Faculty of Engineering - Mechanical Engineering Department is looking to procure a turnkey solution along with necessary accessories for operation and powder handling for a selective laser melting system.
Essential to achieving this goal is the ability to print small metallic parts by using laser deposition methods in combination with a variety of other energy sources. This requires acquiring a compact hybrid manufacturing cell that enables laser deposition of metal powder using powder feeders that supports precision control of small volumes of powder and permits open access to all of the processing data.
The atomization system shall be installed at NASA Glenn Research Center, Cleveland Ohio, and shall be capable of melting and atomizing Fe-, Ni-, Co-, and Cu-based alloys and other non-reactive metals with a melt charge capacity of 20 - 50 kg. The resulting powders will be used in additive manufacturing processes, such as direct metal laser sintering, as well as other general powder metal processes.
