Naval Medical Center San Diego (NMCSD) has a requirement for a materials testing system. The system shall perform mechanical tests involving tension, compression, bending, and torsion. The system shall be capable of biaxial testing, specifically axial (linear) and torsional testing. The system shall be capable of testing the axial strength independently, the torsional strength independently, and the axial and torsional strength simultaneously. The system shall be capable of testing the axial and torsional strength along the same axis. The system shall include monotonic, cyclic, and segmented control profiles. The system shall have an axial strength capacity of at least 50kN and a torsional capacity of at least 50Nm. The system shall have a working stroke (distance) of at least 70 inches. The system shall have a static testing limit of at least 100 in/min, a cyclic testing limit of at least 1Hz, and a rotation speed of at least 55 rpm. The system shall be capable of unlimited number of rotations. The system shall include system control software. The system shall be capable of generating real-time x-y plots, summary test reports, and statistical summaries of test data. The system shall include three biaxial load cells with various axial/torque ratings to include the full range of system capacity. The system shall be equipped with interchangeable grips and fixtures. The system shall include a computer workstation for controlling the tester and collecting and viewing data. The power requirements are 120V, 60Hz. Upon delivery, the vendor shall be responsible for uncrating the unit/system, transporting it through the facility to the location of intended use for installation, and removing of all trash created in this process. If interim storage is required, the vendor shall make arrangements for the storage. Vendor shall be an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) authorized dealer, authorized distributor or authorized reseller for the proposed equipment/system such that OEM warranty and service are provided and maintained by the OEM. All software licensing, warranty and service associated with the equipment/system shall be in accordance with the OEM terms and conditions. The system shall be compliant with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements to market and deliver medical products for use in the United States of America; even should delivery be requested outside of the United States.

All capability statements received by the closing date of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. If a vendor challenges the basis of this requirement, please email product capability statements (formats for submission: PDF, MS Word, or MS Excel) to Brian Miller at brian.miller4@med.navy.mil. In addition, challenges can be faxed to 301-619-1132 Attn: Brian Miller. Email challenges are preferred. Closing date for challenges is no later than 4:00 PM. ET on 22 March 2012.
