Checking and testing apparatus

Tender description

MMK is in need to update its X-ray powder diffraction (XPD) facility with a new X-ray powder diffractometer. The instrument will be utilised to study primarily crystalline powder samples for phase identification, crystal structure solution and refinement, crystallinity, strain, etc. We are seeking a new and modern instrument. Quality management The tenderer must apply a quality management system with continuous improvements that ensures that the agreed quality is met. The tenderer must submit a description to show that this requirement is met, either: — a certification, conforming to standard SS-EN ISO 9001: 2015; or — an equivalent of a certification as above, or in the form of an own documented quality management system. MMK is in need to update its X-ray powder diffraction (XPD) facility with a new X-ray powder diffractometer. XPD is a characterisation technique used to determine structural information of crystalline materials at an atomic level.
