The United States Air Force Academy (USAFA) is soliciting bids for a brand-new material polisher to be used in its metallography laboratory. This procurement is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 334516, with responses due by September 4, 2025. The contract seeks delivery, installation, and verification of a material polisher that adheres strictly to the provided technical specifications, as there is no brand or model preference from the end user.

The polisher must have both central and individual force modes, be capable of preparing six or more 1.25-inch samples simultaneously, and feature adjustable platen and head rotation speeds within specified ranges. Additional necessities include a splash shield, emergency shut-off, sample loading system if required, 240V operation, ability to store user-defined polishing sequences, a one-year warranty, initial setup with machine verification, and six hours of on-site training post-installation. The principal contacts for this solicitation are Andrew Richardson and Jozlyn Kiley at the USAFA in Colorado.
