Other additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement.
The requirement is for the design, manufacture, testing, delivery and installation of the Sample
Positioning System to ESS Lund Sweden.
The Sample Positioning System (SPS) will be used to orient samples in the neutron beam during
experiments. Alignment of the flat surface or interface under examination is achieved through
closed-loop feedback from the downstream neutron detector.
The SPS will be used with a diverse range of sample configurations. Some of the key sample cases have been briefly described here, though as Freia is designed to cover a wide range of samples, this is not an exhaustive account of the samples that will be used
