Description

The NASA/NSSC is seeking a high-precision 8” polishing system with a touchscreen for delicate microscopic sample preparation. The system should have the ability to eliminate user variability through high-precision, semiautomatic controls and provide features such as precision "pitch and roll" micrometers, 1 micron resolution for tracking material removal, and independent control over sample oscillation and rotation. The system should also have a dual camera system for precise sample alignment and photo-documentation. • The system must have precision "pitch and roll" micrometers for angular positioning adjustments in fine increments. • The system must provide 1 micron resolution for tracking material removal in real time. • The system must allow for preset specific removal amounts, enabling unattended operation once the target depth is reached. • The system must have a drive specifically designed for delicate, unencapsulated TEM wedge thinning. • The system must allow for quick removal of sample fixtures for inspection and exact repositioning afterward.

Budget estimate

$200,000 – $500,000

The budget for this opportunity is difficult to estimate, but based on the complexity and precision of the polishing system, it is likely to be a high-value contract. The system's features, such as precision "pitch and roll" micrometers and a dual camera system, suggest a high level of technological sophistication, which may require significant investment. Additionally, the fact that the system is intended for delicate microscopic sample preparation in a research and development setting may also impact the pricing. A rough estimate for the budget could be between $200,000 and $500,000, considering the cost of similar laboratory equipment and the potential for customization and specialized features.
