WP 4 Brazing
Description
The objective of this work package is to exchange knowledge and provide key information relating CLIC high vacuum component brazing between CLIC and Loval Oy. The information exchange will benefit both parties involved in the exchange by increasing understanding of the requirements and possibilities of different brazing technologies.
Specialist from Loval Oy is taking part in the design and testing of CLIC RF component brazing to understand the specific needs of the project and to provide expertise on the subject relating to vacuum brazing and special materials. Also, detailed definition of the thermal cycles and modelling of corresponding stresses and deformation for different material as well as study of industrialisation and corresponding mass production is part of the work.
A scientist, who took part in secondment from CERN to Loval Oy, was working during his stay by exchanging knowledge regarding CLIC requirements on brazing and assembly of high precision components.
Realisation
Experienced designer from Loval Oy (FI) joined CLIC RF component production team for 12 months in 2013.
CERN specialist was working at Loval Oy, Loviisa, Finland, for 2 months in fall 2012.
