3D Printers (2 Lots)

2169/429/MY/NAMRC/18 3D Printers (2 Lots)

The University of Sheffield wishes to invite tenders for 3D Printers (2 Lots) on behalf of the Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre, Midlands.

Scope of Requirement The new Nuclear AMRC facility located in the Midlands has a requirement to be able to rapidly produce prototypes of designs for examination and has identified that 3D Printing is the best method of achieving this criteria.

Because of this, we are looking to purchase four 3D printing technologies to enhance the capability of our centre and gain knowledge which we can pass onto our customers, partners and local SME's in rapid prototyping, advanced manufacturing and 3D printing.

The lots are required to meet a high demand, provide scope for expansion in the future, and also demonstrate how the technology can replace some traditional equipment. The machines will be used to provide 3D printed components in an expanded range of materials to support research and development projects being carried out at the Nuclear AMRC Midlands facility
