DANFYSIK awarded the contracts for multipoles for the upgrade of ELETTRA Sincrotrone Trieste

DANFYSIK is proud to announce being awarded and trusted with the contracts for the design and manufacturing of the multipole magnets for the storage ring for the new upgrade of the ELETTRA Sincrotrone Trieste, Italy.

The award follows the success of delivering multipole and dipole magnets for the upgrade of the world’s largest light sources, ALS at Argonne National Laboratory USA, ESRF European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, France, and presently manufacturing for SLS II, Swiss Light Source at PSI.

DANFYSIK was trusted with the engineering design and manufacturing of multipole magnets (174 quadrupoles, 247 sextupoles and 50 octupoles) for the advanced upgrade of ELETTRA Sincrotrone Trieste. The first article magnets are already under manufacturing.

Swiss Light Source upgrade, SLS II, order of series production of multipoles concluded

Sincrotrone Elettra 600 1 DANFYSIK has completed the delivery of a large order for multipole magnets in connection with a major upgrade of the Swiss Light Source at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Villigen, Switzerland.
The delivery was performed within schedule and with best-in-class quality. The project included 294 high-precision sextupole magnets for the upgrade of the 288-meter-long electron storage ring.

"The series production was running very smoothly with on time delivery of all
batches. The last batch was delivered almost one month in advance!" - The quality of the manpower may be described as very satisfactory. - Quote from PSI report

A new vacuum tube will be fitted, along with around one thousand new, complex magnets that will hold the electrons on a circular path with extreme precision and significant improved emmittance.

As the electrons are accelerated to almost the speed of light they release a special type of X-ray light, or synchrotron radiation. This is used for scientific research at around twenty beamlines around the ring.

"PSI thanks DANFYSIK for its engagement to the project, strong follow to the requirements specification and the excellent workmanship" - Feedback from PSI at conclusion of the order.
