  • BH parts arrived at IAC and inspected. Kevin is going to assemble and weld them all together.


12/18/19

  • Cathode/anode drawings submitted to Spielman for approving (drawings #2013.1.001.0010-0017)
  • PMMA_Output_Sheet/Charging_Isolating_Tube drawings submitted to Spielman for approving (drawings #2013.1.001.0018-0019)
  • X-pinch driver assembly drawing with included cathode/anode submitted to Spielman for approving (drawing #2013.1.001.0020)


12/19/13

  • LESKER reduced 4-way cross (C-0800-275, $890) found as a candidate for vacuum chamber
  • LESKER reduced 4-way cross drawing downloaded and incorporated into SolidWorks (assembly file Lesker_C-800_275\C-0800-275_reassembled)
  • LESKER reduced 4-way cross redesigned to match our x-pinch driver (drawing file Lesker_C-800_275\LESKER_C-0800-275_REASSEMBLED)

    • 2) for anode can, the slot size increased from 0.4" to 0.5" to march x-pinch wires length (drawing #2013.1.001.0014);
  • Reassembled LESCER cross drawing submitted to Spielman for approving (drawing LESKER C-0800-275_REASSEMBLED)
  • X-pinch driver assembly drawing with included cathode/anode/cross submitted to Spielman for approving (drawing #2013.1.001.0010-0021)
