1. MQXF Workshop on Structure, Alignment, and Electrical QA Feb 2-4, 2016 Dan Cheng J. DiMarco, C. Hernikl, D. Humphries, S. Myers, X. Wang MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment

2. Outline Feb 3 2016MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment2 Fiducialization Plan – Coil fiducialization – Magnet fiducial features Assembly tooling and infrastructure Magnetic measurements What can be achievable?

3. Fiducializing Coils Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 3 Currently CMM measurements have only been characterizing coil size/shape We have not implemented any features to measure the coils and locate their mechanical centers yet

4. Proposed Coil Ends Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 4

5. Proposed Coil Ends Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 5 Either a coil fiducial plate, impregnated (Both ends), Or, 2-3 pin holes to be drilled into the end shoes and reamed after reaction This method will be a direct measurement to the coils, removing the uncertainty of measuring the collar ends

6. Fiducializing the Coil Mechanical Center Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 6 When coils are measured, CMM data will also measure the fiducials on both ends to locate them with respect to the theoretical center Perhaps pin holes in poles can also be used in the ID if necessary; requiring spot faces

7. Yoke fiducialization at Shell-Yoke Assembly Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 7 We are exploring the possibility of both measuring and aligning the shell-yokes during the pre-assembly step – Are we able to perform an alignment at this stage, if necessary? – Not yet sure if this is practical; we will try this, though

8. Magnet Fiducialization Features Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 8 Survey tooling block will be used when measuring the Yoke blocks to locate their centers Tooling block will be mounted to at least three quadrants (bottom quadrant is questionable) to fiducialize the structure

9. Yoke Survey Tooling Block Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 9 “1-2-3” Style block – Magnetic hold down

10. Fiducializing the Magnet Structure Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 10 Yoke/magnet fiducial features must be accessible after magnet has been assembled, as depicted here Coil targets defined to their mechanical center Yoke survey block will be defined to coil targets Yoke features remain accessible after axial endplates are installed 1-2-3 survey block

11. Warm Magnetic Measurements Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 11 May use the existing warm measurement probe with a different arrangement of two pickup coils – we can measure the field angle from the first coil relative to that from the second coil as we scan along the magnet (We will check the possible resolution of this method) Tilt angle sensors – The typical accelerometer with 12-bitADC has a resolution of 1 mrad (0.057 degrees). With inclinometers the resolution can reach 0.1 mrad Survey targets can be attached to the measurement probe to track position and location of probe during measurements Stretched wire measurements may also be performed This information will be combined with the mechanical fiducialization data

12. Proposed Fiducial Plan Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 12 Yoke Fiducials, 3x-4x per axial location (bottom may not be readily accessible) Coil Fiducials, Impregnated (4x), Both ends Measured (mech/mag) Centers

13. Magnet Assembly Tooling Layout Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 13 Magnet integration table will be surveyed and fixed into place Network of semi-permenent survey monuments for aligning the tables and defining coordinate system when surveying magnet structure

14. Fixed, and aligned Magnet Integration Table Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 14 Magnet shell/yoke assemblies will be located onto pillars that have been surveyed in

15. What is Achievable? Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 15 This is more of a fiducialization process Magnet alignment: No real “knobs to turn” – Assembly tooling will be aligned, though – Will likely use a laser tracker (FARO Vantage system) – Our survey crew will need to perform some tests http://www.faro.com/products/metrology/far o-laser-tracker/overview

16. Summary Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 16 Coil fiducialization concepts and features proposed at coil and coil parts fabrication Assembly tooling will be surveyed and aligned Magnet fiducialization concepts presented, still in development

17. Extra Slides Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 17

18. Near-term B77a Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 18

19. MQXFSD1 Alignment Observations Feb 3 2016 MQXFA Magnet Fiducialization and Alignment 19 MQXFSD assembly appears to be mechanically well centered – All alignment keys were loose after the bladder operations (keys are not being loaded in shear) Question: What are the specifications/requirements for the assembly (center, twist, etc.)?
