Description
The HL-LHC project is currently in the fabrication and assembly phase for numerous components and systems, in particular the new beam-screen assemblies to be installed inside the upgraded final-focusing superconducting magnets operating at 1.9 K. These complex beam screens integrate tungsten absorbers and exist in two variants: the Q1 and Q2 types, with absorber thicknesses of 16 mm and 6 mm, respectively. In total, 24 assemblies will be installed. Their successful implementation requires complex design work, non-standard and demanding manufacturing processes, and stringent quality assurance. Fabrication has proven to be very challenging in terms of welding and assembly and requires close follow-up and dedicated qualification processes throughout the manufacturing phase.
To maintain a high standard of manufacturing, a Quality Management approach derived from industrial standards and based on ISO 9001 principles, has been implemented. This paper presents how the quality-management framework is deployed throughout the project phases and how it ensures traceability, smooth process execution, and compliance with the required workflows and technical specifications.
