(NU1609-2) Supply of a Silver Sinter System

Tender description

The Driving the Electric Revolution (DER) is an Innovate UK (IUK) Challenge program to support UK industry to seize the economic opportunities from the global transition to clean technologies and electrification. The programme will help businesses across numerous sectors including transport, energy, construction and agriculture to invest and work together to capitalise on the UK’s strengths in this technology. As part of that program, Newcastle University has been awarded a large grant to establish a new DER Innovation Centre (DER-IC) in the North East of England. The NE DER-IC will concentrate on the prototyping and scale-up of power electronics and electric motors. This tender is focussed on the power electronics aspect and specifically the purchase of relevant equipment to attach semiconductor die to a suitable substrate via a pressure sintering approach consistent with the use of silver based materials. The scope is for the supply, delivery, and commissioning of the equipment as detailed in the Invitation to Tender document, with after sales support, a minimum 12 months parts and labour warranty and maintenance. This requirement was only being advertised to all Sellers appointed to Lot 3: Die Attach – Silver Sinter of (NU/1609) Power Electronics Manufacturing Dynamic Purchasing System.
