UCDOPP556 - Invitation to Tender for the Rental Supply, Installation & Commissioning of a Low Pressure Microwave Plasma System

The Surface Engineering Group was recently awarded an Enterprise Ireland commercialisation grant with the objective of scaling-up the plasma sintering processes developed using the existing 5 cm diameter CAP source at UCD. The aim is to simultaneously sinter a minimum of ten 5 cm diameter diamond grinding segments with a larger source compared with a single segment per run currently. For the purpose of this project, the Group requires the rental of a low pressure microwave plasma system for sintering multiple metal powder / ceramic parts. It is envisaged that the system will be required for a period of 16 months.
