	The superconducting crab cavities for KEKB were constructed and installed into KEKB electron-positron collider in January 2007. After cool-down of the crab cavities, the commissioning of the crab cavities started in February 2007 and continued until end of June. Effective head on collision of electron and positron has been achieved successfully for the first time during this spring operation of the KEKB. A luminosity of above 10^34/cm2/sec could be obtained at high beam currents operation (1.3A in the low energy positron and 0.7A in high energy electron).

	Two Crab cavities were fabricated at KEK in 2006. After the completion of the assembly, a horizontal test is normally carried out for a superconducting cavity in KEK. The horizontal test is an overall test for the cavity without a beam. Both cavities achieved above an operational kick voltage of 1.4MV. Although the HER (High Energy Ring for electron) Crab cavity had no trouble, the LER (Low Energy Ring for positron) had a trouble of tuner operation. Due to the limited time, both cavities were installed into the tunnel at the beginning of Jan. in 2007. After the beam commissioning, it was found that this problem was not so much significant for the operation. The LER Crab cavity is being operated above 1A at present.

	MHI has supplied various types of superconducting cavities mainly to KEK in Japan since TRISTAN project started at 1977. We have a lot of experience in the development of superconducting cavities for Japanese projects. And we have the technology to design and fabricate the superconducting cavities. We can present some ideas to improve the quality, cost, and delivery time of the superconducting cavities based on our experience. We designed and fabricated four STF-Baseline superconducting cavities with frequency tuners, helium jackets, according to KEK specifications. To decrease a cavity deformation occurring due to Lorenz force, rigid jacket systems including tuner were designed. By fabricating four cavities, some problems and improvements in the next step are cleared. Some ideas to reduce the fabrication cost are proposed in this paper.
