  5. Beam FeaturesBeamline Production Optics Diffuser SW/HW issues Conclusions target working principle • titanium blade dipping at 1 Hz in the ISIS proton beam • intercept just ~1ms of ISIS accelerated beam • withdrawal must be quick to avoid scraping next filling •  extreme accelerations (80g) • beam loss must comply with ISIS requirements [P. Hodgson, CM22 19/10/08] 1 ms 10 ms 20 ms MICE CM22 - 20/10/2008 - RAL

  6. Beam FeaturesBeamline Production Optics Diffuser SW/HW issues Conclusions some key questions: • how many protons per spill are we generating? and then pions/muons? • rate in april/may with a D1-D2 line for protons • how much beam can we “shave” before “disturbing” ISIS operations • [K.Long, CM22 19/10/08]? • initial simulation of ISIS beam with ORBIT and comparison with signals from BLMs • [A. Dobbs, CM22 19/10/08] • how well we understand the line? • alignment • magnets MICE CM22 - 20/10/2008 - RAL

  25. Beam FeaturesBeamline ProductionOptics Diffuser SW/HW issues Conclusions • system tested with air motors running • main issues found: • linear driving(cylindrical drum): needs precise stop • ACTION encoder used to stop disc before reaching the bottom • comment: 2 micro-switch will still be used for emergency only • driving of the bayonet pin • length between holding point of motor shaft and point of reaction force too long and holding area too small  the motor shaft bounce off the gear due to large shaft deflection • ACTION: The motor/gear box holder has been re-designed to increase stiffness.   • carousel • a) gear box used has NOT enough power to drive carousel whit a strongly unbalanced configuration • b) motor shaft bent as in above case • ACTION: worm wheel and gear with 65:1 ratio will be used to replace old design + new motor holder bracket re-designed to increase stiffness. • response time / residue airin the air tube when the motors stop • 3 m long pipe: overrun distance due to residual air = 0.02 mm • 16 m “ “ : “ “ “ “ “ “ = 0.04/0.08 mm • ACTION: mu-switch prior to end: 0.3 mm  mu-switches should be OK • back-pressure created when valve shuts before air exhausts • ACTION: MD to design logic sequence to overcome problem • magnetic effect on the air motors • ACTION replace the 3 air-motors with non-magnetic ones.
