Quick Summary
The U.S. Army Contracting Command – Redstone Arsenal, on behalf of the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM), is seeking innovative solutions for Advanced Manufacturing Industrial 3D X-Ray and Computed Tomography (CT) Capability. This Call for Solutions, issued under Army Open Solicitation W9128Z-25-S-A002, aims to integrate this technology at Corpus Christi Army Depot (CCAD) to support aviation maintenance operations. Phase 1 Solution Briefs are due July 1, 2026, at 12:00 PM CDT.
Purpose & Need
AMCOM requires accelerated modernization of weapon systems through Advanced Manufacturing (AdvM) technologies to address supply chain challenges and enhance readiness. The immediate need is for Industrial 3D X-ray and CT Scan capability at CCAD to perform non-destructive testing (NDT) on large, high-density, and complex assemblies, ensuring OEM quality parts and meeting obsolescence requirements.
Scope of Work & Key Requirements
The requirement is for a large-format, high-resolution Industrial 3D X-Ray and CT system capable of scanning large, high-density, and complex assemblies. Key features include:
- System: Robust scanning envelope, heavy-duty manipulator, high-energy X-ray source (up to 450 kV) with micro/mini-focus, high-resolution digital detector array (DDA) or linear diode array (LDA).
- Capabilities: Advanced scanning modalities (helical, multi-image stitching, sub-pixel resolution enhancement), DICONDE-compliant software for 3D reconstruction, dimensional metrology, and defect recognition.
- Hardware: Modular, expanding, heavy-duty, walk-in, shielded radiation cabinet/enclosure with automated doors and safety cameras.
- Performance: Minimum 5,000 lbs part weight capacity; minimum 43 inches (horizontal) x 50 inches (vertical) scanning envelope with full 360-degree rotation.
- Software: Autonomous Automated Defect Recognition (ADR) algorithms, compatibility with military CAD formats (STEP, IGES), and integration with Army logistics/MRO tracking databases (GCSS-Army).
- Origin: Offered solutions must be produced in the continental United States.
- Turnkey Solution: Includes installation at CCAD, ancillary equipment, facility transformers, and site acceptance testing (SAT).
- Support: Extended warranty (minimum 2 years beyond included 1 year, totaling 3 years) and preventative maintenance (minimum 2 years beyond included 1 year, totaling 3 years).
- Training: On-site training for up to four (4) CCAD personnel (ASNT-aligned).
