two.2.4) Description of the procurement

The National Manufacturing Institute of Scotland (NMIS) is seeking notes of interest for suppliers who are able to supply and deliver the required High Temperature Material.

A requirement has emerged for the provision of a high temperature material for the manufacture of an isothermal die stack capable of operating within an isothermal forging vacuum chamber at a temperature of 1300⁰C and loads of up to 2000 tons. This material should take the form of a molybdenum based alloy which can withstand such temperatures and should be capable of operating within the temperature range of 900⁰C and 1300⁰C in a vacuum or inert gas atmosphere. Approximately dimensions are in the region of 400mm in diameter and 200mm in height.

MHC is one such material which could be proposed. Other variants of such materials may be considered if deemed suitable. The proposed material should possess outstanding thermal and creep resistance and should also be capable of withstanding extreme thermal and mechanical loads in service.

NMIS may hold information sessions with suppliers who note an interest in this requirement
