Placing on-line beam diagnostic elements in the right position of a beam line have a strong dependency with the corresponding beam dynamics. To aid the selection of the appropriate device and electronics we simulate the expected signals according to beam dynamics.

We support our customers in the selection and realization of individually adapted beam diagnostic elements. This includes

• the construction with modern 3D CAD software
• the analytical design of the components for a first signal estimation
• the calculation of the electromagnetic functional variables with CST – Computer Simulation Technology
• a computer-aided thermal analysis for the protection of the components
• extensive tests for final operational capability
• documentation and operating

The BEVATECH delivery standard includes capacitive probes such as

• BPMs Beam Position Monitors
• Phase probes

On request we also offer

• Special designs to accommodate Current Transformers
• Faraday Cups (cooled and uncooled)
• Emittance measurement systems
• Ionisation Chambers
• Control electronics
• Evaluation software

We always include the following in the scope of delivery

• check and documentation for compliance with manufacturing tolerances
• measurement of the functionality
• vacuum tightness and vacuum leak tests

On our in house BPM measuring stand we are able to perform the following measurements

• Linearity
• Zero point adjustment to compensate for the deviation between geometrical to electrical center point

• Development of an automated BPM test bench
• First optical beam profile measurements on an H⁻-source in Frankfurt
• The HITRAP Decelerator and Beam Instrumentation
