1.I did not find any mention of an Operator Interface. Is the Integration Test Station (ITS) used as the Operator Interface? If so, can you provide information on this unit (brand/software platform)?
2.The software functionality of the gantry is not defined in the PDS. Is gantry simply to follow positional commands from the ITS?
3.Is there ITS hardware and software interface information available?
4.Section 4.2.1 states the accuracy of the X-axis to be +- 25 microns, and section 4.2.2 states the accuracy of the Y-axis to be +- .1 mm. The use of 2 different measurement techniques, and the very tight distance for the X-axis has raised a question amongst our personnel. Can you please verify the correctness of the accuracy claims?
5.Section 4.2 refers to the Parker 6K8 Controller and a control cabinet. Is there only one controller and cabinet to control both gantry systems, or does each gantry have its own controller and cabinet?
6.There is no mention of a specific servo motor. Is this left for us to specify based on application sizing?
7.The drives and controller are custom part numbers, and are soon to be discontinued. Are we allowed to offer alternatives from current Parker offerings?

1. Operator interface will be over Ethernet with the 6K8.

2. Gantry functionality is to follow positional commands input to the 6K8 controller.

3. No need for that - Software should be written by contractor to meet testing needs.

4. Using latest PSD, note the recommended motors and rails. The specifications for the motors and rails indicate that kind of accuracy is possible.

5. Each gantry system will be a totally separate system and have its own controller and cabinet.

6. Reference latest PSD.

7. Drives and controllers must be requested Parker part numbers.
