This specification lists the technical requirements for supply of Niobium sheets as per dimensions and properties listed in this specification and conforming to ASTM B391, “Niobium and Niobium Ingot Alloys”, R04200Type 1, reactor grade unalloyed niobium with additional and overriding requirements as specified herein. 2. SCOPE OF THE TENDER
3. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR THE BIDDERS The only eligible bidders are as follows: 3.1 Qualified Manufacturers of the Material The material manufacturers are eligible to bid if they operate under a quality management system ISO 9001: 2000 with material manufacturing (Niobium) in the scope of the certificate. The bidder shall attach a certificate to this effect with their bid. Preferably, they shall have their own sales office in India. Quotations from niobium manufacturers only shall be accepted. 3.2 Authorized Dealers of the Qualified Manufacturers of the Material A recent and valid authorization certificate from the qualified manufacturers for the supply of niobium sheets must be attached with the offer. Offers without valid authorization certificate will be rejected without any intimation to the bidder. 4. General Documentation for tendering and contracting Please refer to the commercial bidding documents for complete information. 4.1 Tender Procedure 4.1.1 Technical Questionnaire A mandatory technical questionnaire is attached with this Technical Specification (MANDATORY TECHNICAL QUESTIONNAIRE, Tables A1 and A2). The technical questionnaire has been prepared to eliminate correspondence with bidders for seeking clarifications on the inadequate/ incomplete/ missing information and / or for requesting mandatory documents required by the purchaser. The mandatory questionnaire shall be completely filled in, duly signed and stamped by the bidder on each page and submitted along with the bid. Offers received without fulfilling this condition will be considered as incomplete and will be rejected. Ref.: TFR/PD/IM9-269/PUB
Please specify the complete details of the original manufacturer of the offered material and give complete contact details (name, phone, email, web address, fax, postal address). It is mandatory to specify original manufacturer of the material. 4.1.3 Details of the handling agencies in India Please specify the complete details of the handling agencies of the offered materials and give complete contact details (name, phone, email, web address, fax, postal address). 4.1.4 Validity of offer Preferably, the offer shall be valid for 90 days. 4.2 Purchase Order Execution 4.2.1 Purchase Order Distribution In case, the order is placed on the authorized dealers of the qualified material manufacturers then a copy of the purchase order will be sent to the material manufacturer as well. 4.2.2 Processing of Purchase Order by the Vendor
The quantity shown in the article 6 only indicates the minimum requirements. If the quantity happens to be less than the “Minimum Order Quantity” (MOQ) of the material, then the qualified material manufacturers and their authorized dealers are requested to quote for MOQ. Purchaser reserves the right to place order for MOQ or the quantity mentioned in the article 6 depending on availability, economy and conformance to this specification. 4.4 Cost calculation for comparison purpose Since the order quantity may change due to conditions embedded in articles 4.3, the Cost Comparison of Tender (CST) will be made on the basis of landed cost of “one kg of weight” for each item. Ref.: TFR/PD/IM9-269/PUB
Material shall be Niobium sheets cold rolled & annealed as per ASTM B 391 & ASTM B 393 and Niobium rod as per ASTM B392-03 with additional and overriding requirements as specified herein. 5.2 Applicable Documents Technical supply conditions shall conform to, but not be limited to, the document’s list given below: Table1: Applicable Standards, Latest Edition
5.3 Properties and Testing 5.3.1 Mechanical properties The final product shall conform to the following mechanical properties at room temperature as per ASTM E8: The difference in yield strength and elongation in the longitudinal (rolling direction) and transverse directions shall be minimum possible and the difference shall be stated in the quotation. The purchaser reserves the right to use it as a selection criteria, in case, other properties are met in the offers. For the tensile measurement, the rate of strain shall not exceed 0.010 inch/inch minute through the 0.2% offset yield strength. The rate of strain may be increased to 0.05 inch/inchminute thereafter. The method of measurement shall be according to Section 5.4.1.
The material shall be delivered in fully annealed condition with an “as etched” surface (free of oxide inclusions, cracks, blisters or laminations), with both surfaces having a clean “metallic” looking finish (metallic blank) and a surface roughness Rt<15 µm. The delivered material shall be free of injurious internal or external imperfections of a nature that would interfere in the deep drawing operation of RF cavity components. Particular care should be taken in the final rolling and subsequent handling to avoid the inclusion and embedding of particles of foreign material in the surface of the sheets. The method of measurement shall be according to Section 5.4.2. 5.4 Inspection and Testing The tests listed below are the minimum required and are not intended to supplant any controls, examinations, inspections, or tests normally employed by the seller to assure the quality of the product. A minimum of two samples per sheet shall be taken from two sheets per each lot of Nb sheet covered by this specification. Ref.: TFR/PD/IM9-269/PUB
Measurements shall be performed in accordance with ASTM E8 to determine Yield strength, Tensile strength and Elongation. Both longitudinal (to the rolling direction) and transverse (perpendicular to rolling direction) sections shall be examined as described in the following paragraph. For the tensile measurements, the rate of strain shall not exceed 1%/minute through the 0.2% offset yield strength. The rate of strain may be increased 5%/minute thereafter. Hardness (HV) has to be measured after final annealing for each sheet. 5.4.2 Surface Finish Inspection For the surface finish, both sides of each sheet must pass a 1X visual inspection as follows: Inspections must be performed with the naked eye or correction to 2020 vision, at a distance of no more than 10 inches and with the aid of a 100 Watt light source. Magnifying aids may be used to determine the following causes, any of which are cause for whole or part rejection: •Pores, indentations or "orange peeling". •Scratches deeper than .001 inch. •Dirt or grease deposits.
The seller shall maintain a documented quality assurance program that will insure that each item offered for acceptance or approval conforms to the requirements herein. A Quality Assurance plan must be submitted with the proposal and must be approved prior to the award of the contract. 5.5.1 Test Reports Each of the following tests shall be done. The reports of the tests shall be sent to the purchaser at the time of material shipment. 5.5.1.3 Mechanical properties, specific values per Section 5.3.1 5.5.1.5 Surface Finish per Section 5.3.2 5.5.2 Inspection TIFR reserves the right to have its technical or procurement representatives witness manufacturing steps, tests and inspections established under the seller's quality assurance program to demonstrate compliance with the specifications. Any information of a proprietary nature must be identified in the bid process. 6. QUANTITY The dimensions and quantity of niobium sheets are mentioned in below. The sheet flatness shall be according to ASTM B708, 2% or better. Table 2: Quantity
