  2. Introduction Talk will cover • Recent progress at TESLA • Cryocooler testing • Testing in R9 • Schedule

  3. Recent Progress and Status OVC is being machined at Mid-Kent Engineering at Sittingbourne. Company has a large number of large machines for milling. Tesla welder attends for welding activities

  4. Recent Progress and Status Assembly is progressing quite quickly – they are a further on than these pictures show (taken 20-12-2011) On Monday this week they were machining the final “shoe-box” flange

  5. Cryocoolers One of the poorer performing Cryomech coolers was returned to the factory in the US and was re-tested there. Performance shortfall was verified ... They will put a residual gas analyser on the cold head then disassemble if necessary.

  6. Schedule • There is at least 1 month of assembly at Tesla • Controls on schedule to be delivered mid Februrary • Power supply “on order” • Short term schedule is as shown in the table • Expected delivery to RAL by end of February 2012

  7. Schedules • Module 1 should be with us end Feb/early March • Plans for reception in R9 advanced • Looks as though performance and field mapping tests will take place in March/April • At the moment it looks as though MKE would be able to start on machining the second module in early March. It is possible that this could be done at Tesla as their large machine may be available by then but given the experience of the job at MKE it it more likely to be done there.
