2. IL RE Pole Preliminary Design
Based on QXF cross-section design 3
BEND program
Import the output (a group of points) of BEND to CAD software
Create ruling lines and the surface, and then generate the parts

3. QXF Cable Winding Test Setup
L1 RE Pole
Mandrel Spacer
HQ/LHQ Winding Mandrel
Two IL RE pole pieces (rapid prototype)
Total winding length ~0.77m

4. End Parts Design Plan
Once the cross-section is chosen, Fermilab will design end parts using BEND.
Fermilab and CERN will share the parameters.
The parts will be fabricated by laser sintering.
Practice coil will be fabricated (LQXF).
The “BEND” end parts will be compared with the “ROXIE” end parts.
