Tender description

The primary aim of this tender is to provide equipment for a development phase to inform the establishment of a next generation continuous direct compression digital test bed. This phase will be sited in University of Strathclyde Glasgow and the next phase, in approximately 2 years time in Inchinnan Renfrewshire whereupon the scope is likely to be further developed to include further unit operations. Vendors are invited to provide novel cost competitive proposals to provide a continuous feeder and blender platform. Please refer to the tender pack available at https://ne1procurementservices.com for further information A NIR instrument is specified for this application which must be capable of integration in the output of the continuous blender. A PAT NIR instrument and associated interface is required for inline, real time, monitoring of blend uniformity and content at the exit of the blender. Instrument control and data acquisition must be implemented through a PAT Management System (PMS). The supervisory control system and data platform. Developing the underpinning data platform, model integration and setup of the supervisory control system will be an integral part of the project. The platform will drive the standardisation of data from materials characterisation, prediction and modelling and process measurements, and will capture all useful metadata to facilitate evolving process understanding. The supervisory control system will allow us to trace material and reconsolidate the data from the different processes and the NIRS.
