Full-scale Mockup



Space request (Eric's document)

We can construct a full-size plywood mockup of 1/4 of the region in order to mount real rails and figure out how to slide panels in, how to route fibers etc.
  1. supports
  2. magnet floor and upper and lower coil sections
  3. brackets for tilted coil section
  4. tilted coil
  5. tapered bar
  6. spider frame(s)
  7. magnet coil brackets on the tilted coil and on the tapered bar

If we cut along vertical planes that make an angle of 15° wrt the beampipe, we can make a slice that is 2.5m wide and about 4m deep

The magnet wall subassembly ( from this STEP file) fits on 9 4'×8' sheets.

Note sheets 61-64 are full sheets, and the tabs protrude. Likely no problem - we can do without the tabs.


Model, scale 6:100, model size 15.5×32×14.5 cm

The whole thing takes 42 4×8 sheets, one or two less if you move things around a bit.

The holes and tabs in the dxf files are as in A. If the router follows this path, the holes and tabs will come out as in B. You want to add little lines to cut shapes like C. Does the cutter software add these automatically? We could add the lines and let the cutter do it, or we can square the holes with a jig saw.
