Tracker structures (at the centre of the CMS experiment) Main requirements: light, radiation-transparent, stiff, high-precision, stable, affordable cost Silicon detector modules supported by carbon fiber structures. “Rod” structure made of pultruded profiles
”Rod” profile manufacture Jotain yleistä valmistuksessa käytetystä laitteistosta?, sarjakoosta, valmistuksen haasteista (suoruus & seinämäpaksuus etc.)… Openings for the mechanical supports, connectors and wire routings were made using water-jet cut.
”Rod” assembly Assembly by gluing on jigs Result: Structure with precision supports for detector modules 750 “Rod” structures to be produced. Status in March 2004: 100 ready.
Quality control of the rod geometry Precision of detector supports better than 0.05 mm
