Trade Agreement: WTO-AGP/NAFTA/AIT/Canada FTAs with Peru/Colombia/Panama
Tendering Procedures: All interested suppliers may submit a bid
Competitive Procurement Strategy:
Comprehensive Land Claim Agreement: No
Nature of Requirements:

(a) Requirement
The Munition Experimental Test Centre has a requirement
for the supply of one 2D digital X-ray / 3D Computed
Tomography Inspection System (CTIS) due to the
increasing demand for 3-dimensional measuring of
components to find hidden defects (e.g. shrink holes,
cracks, inclusions, pores, etc.) in the depth of a
material and to determine the exterior and interior
physical dimension of a specimen. Computed Tomography
(CT) allows the inspection and measurement of hidden
and inaccessible specimen characteristics, which is
not possible with other techniques.

The procurement for this CTIS is necessary to improve
the support of tests and evaluation trials for the
Department of National Defence (DND).

This 3D inspection system will permit to produce 2D
digital x-ray and 3D representations of components
both externally and internally without disassembly
or destruction of the part and also permit failure
analysis, assembly analysis, dimensional
measurements and allowing reverse engineering
projects to be moved faster into prototype
fabrication.

(b) Client
Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC)
Munitions Experimental Test Center (METC)
2459, route de la Bravoure,
