NTG Neue Technologien

In a collaboration with Prof. Dr. Ulrich Ratzinger of the J.-W. Goethe University a normal-conducting CH structure has been developed for the GSI in Darmstadt serving as a prototype for the planned 350 MHz proton linac which will accelerate to a final energy of 70 MeV. The total length will be in the order of 25 m. The particular efficiency of this structure is due to the compact design and the direct coupling of two individual CH resonators by means of an intermediate coupling cell which houses a compact quadrupole triplet for radial focusing. The prototype for GSI’s proton linac was the first normal conducting CH structure, followed by other structures of this kind: a cw structure for the FRANZ project, a highest field structure and a prototype for the CW-Linac of the MYRRHA project.

The R-IBE 450 is the enlarged version of the R-IBE 215. It can be used for IBE and R-IBE treatments. As a special feature this machine is able to perform subaperture etching.

The IBF 2000 is the world’s largest commercially available IBF machine and is capable of processing mirrors and optics up to a diameter of 2000mm, a thickness of max. 600mm and a total weight of 1.5t. The system is complemented by the turning device TD 2000 with which the optics can be positioned and aligned ergonomically on the workpiece holder.
