Conveyer systems

MLR (auto-guided):•We contacted the company

•For further iteration we would require the updated layout (incl. step-file) and sketch•Costs will likely be high (~100kEUR) for 1t payload

Other Options:•SEAQX

Motorized wheel (to integrate) Trailer system Damped lifting and transport

•Air cushion systems (to integrate) AEROGO TRANDLOG SMEYERS

We will take contact with them

Other News

Target:

• Three fixed installed target for varying beam intensity

Materials Aluminium (×2) and copper (×1) (allowing for intensity reduction of about 2.5 and 4)

Second aluminium target shall include longitudinal holes to allow for the largest reduction (/4)

1 empty slot (e .g. direct beam sample tests)

Expected operation with Beam-Parameters (first guess):

• standard operation (with one of the massive targets in place): any sigma between 5 to 25mm is ok for us

• reduced intensity operation (with aluminum target including ‘holes’): any sigma between 10-25mm is ok for us

• small component tests

with target in place: sigma larger than 15mm required

without target in place: largest possible sigma at small sample location
