The National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) seeks information on vendors that can provide a commercial single-axis rate table that can rotate sensors with prescribed angular velocities and trajectories. SEE THE ATTACHED SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE FOR DETAILS AND SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS. The rate table must have the following functionalities: Must be capable of rotating with arbitrary trajectories that are defined by the user. The trajectories can be in terms of position (angle) or rate, with rotations that can be a fraction of 360 degrees. For example, a rotation that is a sine wave going from -10 degrees to 190 degrees, moving through 0 degrees, with a frequency of 0.5 Hz. Must be capable of operating with the rate table oriented vertically or horizontally. Must include motion controller hardware and software. Must include software for interfacing with the rate table, and generating prescribed trajectories, with a computer (not necessarily provided). A method for generating desired trajectories with minimal programming must be included. The rate table must meet the following Minimum Specifications. Minimum Specifications Maximum payload mass: 11 kg Angular range: +/-360 degrees, continuous Angular accuracy: +/- 30 arc sec or better Angular resolution: 0.001 degrees or better Angular repeatability: +/- 4 arc sec or better Rate range: +/- 3000 deg/s or higher Rate resolution: 0.001 deg/s or smaller Table top diameter: 25 cm or larger Maximum table top wobble: 15 arc sec or smaller Computer interface to rate table: Ethernet and/or USB AC power requirement: single phase 115 V Dimensions: 700 mm x 500 mm x 500 mm or smaller
