Description

This is a special notice issued by Westinghouse Savannah River Company (WSRC), management and operating contractor for the U.S. Department of Energy's Savannah River Site near Aiken, South Carolina. WSRC wishes to determine public interest in licensing for commercial resale the Small Diameter Pipe Crawler, designed to move through 3 inch to 4 inch diameter pipes at longer distances, carrying more weight, than existing crawlers. Compact and flexible, the new crawler navigates 90 bends. Inch-worm movement propels the crawler with equal ease both forward and backward in a horizontal plane and up and down in a vertical plane. An attached mini-camera transmits video images for remote inspection. Small tooling can be attached for a variety of applications. Made from off-the-shelf components, the crawler is inexpensive and easy to assemble. For more information on the Small Diameter Pipe Crawler and licensing opportunities contact Dale K. Haas via telephone at (803) 725-4185 or (800) 228-3843, via Fax at (803) 725-4988, via email at dale.haas@srs.gov, or via regular mail at Westinghouse Savannah River Company, Building 773-41A #238, Aiken, SC 29808. Responses to this notice should be received by October 26, 2001. This is not a request for a formal subcontract; it is a request for interested parties and licensing opportunities only.
