GB-Harwell: High Speed Video Facility

Description

The Dynamics group of RAL Space carries out vibration and shock tests on space hardware for a range of industry and internal customers. For tests within the National Satellite Test Facility RAL Space will need to provide high speed video recording capability to monitor satellite deployment and separation systems and there is a requirement to view shock test on components. For some test items there is a need to provide non-contact deflection measurement during tests and this capability will also be used to measure vibrations in test equipment during commissioning processes. This leads to a requirement for two cameras to input data to a digital image correlation software package. To provide these capabilities there is a requirement for two identical high speed cameras with relevant control and processing routines, software to carry out digital image correlation measurement and necessary supporting accessories such as lights and stands. The bid should be for the complete package including two video cameras, DIC software and accessories for calibration, lighting and stands. The maximum value of the opportunity is £180,000.00 exclusive of VAT. Responses over this value will be deemed non-compliant and will not be considered further.
