The European XFEL, currently under construction at the DESY site in Hamburg, require high precision orbit control in the long undulator sections and in addition in some other locations of the machine, like bunch compressors, matching sections, or for the intra bunchtrain feedback system. Due to the pulsed operation of the facility the required high precision has to be reached by single bunch measurements. So far only cavity BPMs achieve the required performance and will be used at the European XFEL. We report on the development of two types of cavity BPMs for the intersection of the undulators with 10 mm beam pipe and for sections with a standard beampipe diameter of 40.5 mm. The prototypes for both types show the properties as expected for simulation results. The paper further concentrates on the industrialisation process. It points out some traps and their cures during the production process.
