Ultrasonic welding machine for Aalborg University

The tender concerns an Agreement for supply of an Ultrasonic Welding machine. The machine is intended for welding copper terminals to power modules that are manufactured at AAU at small scale. Some modules require the use of rivet or sleeve welded to the power module, which we desire as an option to the machine. The purpose of this tender is to obtain an attractive price along with a high quality. The machine, however, must be of such high quality as to allow semi-automatic production of our internally produced power modules. This entails vision systems and automation described in the specifications. As a part of the evaluation, the Contracting Authority wishes to carry out an evaluation test of the offered ultrasonic welding machine. The Tenderer shall make a similar machine available for testing at a location within the EU. The machine must be functionally comparable to the offered solution and allow execution of the test plan prepared by the Contracting Authority. The evaluation test will be conducted using copper terminals and DBC substrates provided by the Contracting Authority. The purpose of the evaluation test is to verify the machine’s ability to perform ultrasonic welds in accordance with the technical requirements specified in the tender material. The Tenderer shall cooperate in good faith to schedule and facilitate the evaluation test. All costs related to making the machine available for the evaluation test (excluding the Contracting Authority’s travel costs and the materials provided by AAU) shall be borne by the Tenderer. Failure to provide access to an appropriate machine for the evaluation test will negatively affect the evaluation of the Tenderer’s offer. All deliveries referred to in the tender documents must be performed in full compliance with Danish law.
