Description

b. Automation of SRF Cavity String Assembly SRF cavities and other metallic components are assembled together in a cleanroom environment. At present the largest impact on the quality of the assembly is the human factor. In order to minimize this impact and also to decrease touch labor and cost, robot-assisted assembly technology is of great interest. Full digitalization of the assembly area, contactless measurement of the component positions, assisted positioning and alignment are some of the steps that could be implemented. The ultimate goal of the proposal submitted is to develop a contactless technology to reconstruct the pose of high-reflecting metallic components to enable robot assisted assembly of SRF components in a cleanroom environment.
