The U.S. Army's Tobyhanna Depot is soliciting industry proposals for robotic machines to manufacture wiring harnesses for Army electronic systems. The request for information outlines the need for one prototype low-rate initial production machine and one full-rate production machine, along with software and engineering services.

Specifications include a maximum size of 2.3m x 2.2m x 2.3m, weight not exceeding 2000kg, operational temperature range of 10 to 35 degrees Celsius, and humidity not above 85%. The machines should support various wire types and terminations, and documentation must include operator manuals and training materials.
