Assembly and Test of the HL-LHC Twin Aperture Orbit Corrector Based on Canted Cos-Theta Design

2020 
In the frame of the high-luminosity upgrade project (HL-LHC) at CERN, a double aperture, independently powered, family of beam orbit corrector magnets will be installed close to the two main LHC experiments Atlas and CMS. These 2.6 T magnets, built using a canted cos-theta design. This paper describes the development of the prototype, full size 2-m-long magnets. We first focus on design and assembly techniques: from coil winding using a CNC machined aluminium former to impregnation, layer-jump, quench protection, and yoke assembly. We then present the power test results at 1.9 K: training, field quality and protection.
