UKRI-1417 Mirror Mount Motorized Actuators And Controller(s)

Tender description

UKRI-STFC require a motion control system for a new laser facility. The motion control system needs to include motorised actuators which can be controlled so that multiple actuators can be moved at the same time. It is expected that approximately 150 - 200 actuators will be needed in the system, although the full complement will not need to be moved at the same time. This system will evolve over time and so will need to be modular in nature and capable of expansion at a later date. The motion system provided must include a means by which control can be achieved using external software. Lot 1: UKRI require a motion control system is required for a new laser facility. The motion control system needs to include motorised actuators which can be controlled so that multiple actuators can be moved at the same time. The smallest movement would need to be approximately 30 nm with a full range of approximately 12mm. For more information on this requirement and on how to express an interest, please see section VI.3) Additional information.
