Scanning of a high intensity particle beam imposes challenging requirements on Wire Scanner system. It is expected to reach scanning speed of 20 m/s with position accuracy of the order of 1 μm. In addition a timing accuracy better than 1 millisecond is needed. The adopted solution consists of a wire holding fork rotating by maximal of 200°. Fork, rotor and angular position sensor are mounted on the same axis and located in a chamber connected to the beam vacuum. The requirements imply the design of a system with extremely low vibration, vacuum compatibility, radiation, and temperature tolerance. The adopted solution consists of a rotary brushless synchronous motor with the permanent magnet rotor installed inside of the vacuum chamber and the stator installed outside. The accurate position sensor will be mounted on the rotary shaft inside of vacuum chamber and has to resist bake-out temperature of 200°C and ionizing radiation up to tenth of kGy/years. A digital feedback controller allows maximum flexibility for the loop parameters and feeds the 3 phases input for the linear power driver. The paper will present a detail discussion of chosen concept and the selected components. |
