Description

Auto-translated from hr

The subject of the procurement is a compact laboratory electric arc furnace for melting metal samples with functionally compatible accessories, in accordance with the Bill of Quantities and Technical Specifications which form Annex 1 and Annex 2 of this Invitation to Tender. All costs related to the delivery of the subject of procurement, such as packaging, transport, insurance during transport and unloading at the Contracting Authority's address, and others, must be included in the price. Tenderers are obliged to offer all items listed in Annex 1. Bill of Quantities, meaning the offer must be complete. The equipment must be new, unused, and delivered in appropriate factory or protective packaging, with a list of delivered components, user and maintenance manuals, and accompanying safety and technical documentation. For system parts for which it is prescribed, CE marking and an appropriate EU declaration of conformity must be provided, with the application of relevant European regulations and standards or equivalent proof of conformity. The delivery period for the subject of procurement is a maximum of 6 (six) months from the mutual signing of the Contract. The subject of procurement is being procured for the needs of implementing the institutional research project: Characterisation of Mechanical and Magnetic Properties of High-Entropy FeCoNiMnTi Alloys, project acronym: CMM-HEA, project leader: Assoc. Prof. Lovro Liverić, Ph.D. The project is financed by EU NextGenerationEU instruments, within the framework of the Recovery and Resilience Facility, i.e., the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NPOO), and the Contracting Authority has secured these funds under the Programme Agreement. Within the CMM-HEA project, new high-entropy alloys based on the Fe-Co-Ni-Mn-Ti system are being researched. One of the main goals of the project is to determine the relationship between chemical composition, microstructure, and the mechanical, thermal, and magnetic properties of these alloys. To carry out such research, it is not sufficient to procure commercially available finished materials. It is necessary to independently produce experimental alloys from individual high-purity elements according to pre-designed chemical compositions, and then to carry out the planned characterization methods on the produced samples. Therefore, the electric arc melting system is the basic research equipment for the experimental part of the project. The compact electric arc melting system must enable the production of laboratory samples in the approximate range of 5–20 g per melt and process temperatures up to approximately 3500 °C, depending on the material and operating conditions. If the generator is integrated into the furnace housing, it can be listed as a separate price or catalog item, but the delivery of another, additional standalone generator is not required.
