Gentlemen:
We are pleased to submit our proposal to perform preliminary development and
fabrication of a Chip Cutter-Viewer unit as described in the referenced sspeoi-
fioations.
The scope of the proposed work is to be limited to proving the feasibility of
the cutter head mechanism the azimuth setting and adjustment; evaluation of
die design and materials and some aspects of the film handling problem. It is
not the Intent of this proposal to furnish a finished piece of equipment, but
rather to provide the basis for a sound design for equipment to be proposed
subsequent to successful completion of these studios.
The unit proposed would include the male and female- die sections mounted on a
suitable tram having 12" minimum depth of throat from the centerline of the
die, and having contained the azimuth indexing and looking means. The proposed
unit would have manual actuating means for cutting chips from test films and
elementary means for illumination of the ship area and removal of the chip from
the die. This unit would provide the basis for evaluation of future design
proposals and lead to solutions for the primary problems of the final design.
We ettimete the cost for this work, performed under the terms and eonditions of
