More Information
Summary:A superconducting RF test facility (STF) is being constructed at KEK for R&D oriented toward the International Linear Collider (ILC). Under KEK's guidance, Hitachi, Ltd. has manufactured cryostat components at its factory and completed final assembly in the STF Linac Building at KEK. The STF cryomodule consists of two cryostats, each about six meters long based on the TESLA-TTF-type III design. Each cryostat can house four 9-cell cavities, each one meter in length. This report outlines the flow of manufacturing from the factory to final assembly, and describes the manufacturing of equipment, assembly precision, and other matters.
