Description
The installation and alignment of new beamlines and beamline components is necessary at any accelerator facility. The equipment and methods used to perform these precision driven tasks must be accurate, reliable and above all, easily repeatable. Using coordinate measuring machines (CMM), laser trackers, combined with Spatial Analyzer, Autodesk Inventor and other custom tools, it is possible to rapidly and accurately take an idea from model to reality, as shown through the construction of the ATLAS Multi-User beamline.
