We present developments for the realization of a multilateration network based on Frequency Scanning Interferometry (FSI). Our developments include a reference sphere and kinematic mount for localizing the FSI optical fibre tip and therefore allowing distance measurements in different directions from the same point. Through simulations, we have optimised geometry of our multilateration network...
The micro-triangulation method is proposed as an alternative for magnet fiducialisation. The aim is to directly measure the fiducial points and the stretched wire at the same time, space, and coordinate system, attempting to reduce the uncertainty. We use robotic theodolites equipped with a camera to automatically measure horizontal and vertical angles to the fiducial points and the stretched...
Dimensional metrology is of a primary importance in many fields of synchrotron facilities. We have tried to define the basic tools for a spatial layout analysis of dimensional measurement systems to be used by mechanical engineers and people involved in Alignment. Examples deal with Storage Ring alignment, from magnetic measurement bench to quadrupole alignment on their girders.
