NIST-SS26-07 6640 / 334516 Primary POC: Liz Timberlake (Elizabeth.timberlake@nist.gov) Secondary POC: Donald Collie (donald.collie@nist.gov) Title: Torque Motor BACKGROUND THIS IS A SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking information from sources that may be capable of providing a torque motor. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 334516. NIST has a need for a torque motor that meets or exceeds the following draft minimum specifications: The Contractor shall provide one (1) full torque motor (4 coil segments + 7 segments of magnet) and one (1) additional set of 4 coil segments that meet the following minimum specifications: The high torque motor should be exactly dimensioned to match existing infrastructural hardware and bearings at NIST where both coil and magnet segments must be able to fill a full circular ring. Detailed performance specifications are given below. System shall have two (2) full sets of coil rings; Each ring is comprised of 4x90 deg = 360 deg. System shall have one (1) full set of magnet ring; One ring is comprised of 6x54 deg + 1x36 deg = 360 deg. System shall have 40 pole pairs (80 segments) of NdFeB magnets matching the pitch of the 40 individual trapezoidal coils System shall have all coils fully embedded inside thermally conductive cured epoxy fins, 10 coils per 90 deg arc. System shall have at least 0.65 T axial magnetic field within the air gap. Total height of magnet ring shall be 29 mm and air gap shall be between 7 - 8 mm. At least one thermistor shall be embedded inside each coil arc and at least 4 total thermistors shall be embedded inside select magnet arcs for directly measuring the temperature of the NdFeB components.
