Quick Summary

The Department of the Army, Army Contracting Command (ACC-APG), Tobyhanna Division, is conducting a Sources Sought / Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential vendors capable of providing a High-Speed Metal Stamping Press System for brushless DC motor stator lamination. This RFI is for market research and planning purposes only. Responses are due March 26, 2026, at 12:00 PM EST.

Scope of Work

The Army seeks information on commercially available high-speed metal stamping press systems designed for laminating brushless DC motor stators up to 50mm in diameter using full-face bonding varnish. Key areas of interest include:

  • High-Speed Press System: Specifications for tonnage, stroke rate, bed/slide dimensions, shut height, deflection, drive system (e.g., servo-driven), automation (PLC, HMI, die protection), and feed/stacking systems (coil feeding, automated stacking, scrap removal).
  • Lamination and Bonding Process: Compatibility with bonding varnishes, curing process details (temperature, pressure, cycle times), methods for ensuring lamination quality (magnetic properties, eddy currents, thermal conductivity), and tooling recommendations.
  • System Integration and Turnkey Solutions: Capabilities for providing complete turnkey solutions from coil handling to finished stator stack, component integration, installation, training, and after-sales support.
  • Sourcing Requirements: Materials used in bearings must not be sourced from the People's Republic of China, the Russian Federation, the Islamic Republic of Iran, or the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

Contract & Timeline

  • Type: Sources Sought / Request for Information (RFI)
  • Set-Aside: None specified (market research stage)
