  2. Outline Background Starting activities Main Topic Experience in the partner company List of trainings attended Future steps

  3. Background Master degree in Automation Engineeringat Politecnico di Milano Sibergsrl: systems integration and automation systems Fellow at Universita’ di Brescia (spin off GEXCEL )

  4. Starting activities • Startingdate 1° August 2011 • Work on position sensors calibration using LabVIEW: • Eddy current sensor • ironless LVDT prototype sensor • LVDT Test bench software upgrade Documented in internal reports • Bibliographic research and market investigation on position sensor based on interferometer principleto be used in hard radiation environments. Now at CERN for calibration test

  5. Main topic: introduction 1/4 Whatis the HRS? Isolde has two mass separators and they are used to separate the ions generated in the facility, according to their mass. • HRS= High Resolution Separator (90° and 60° magnet ) • GPS= General Purpose Separator (70° magnet ) Aim of the work: develop a new control system for the High Resolution Separator magnet (HRS) in order to achieve better performances for HIE-ISOLDE.

  6. Main topic: system in use 2/4 NMR: Metrolab PT2025 +2030 mux 0.13-0.52 T 0.09-0.26 T MAGNET DSC Power supply: Bruker B-MN70/480R 0-480 Ampere • BASIC IDEA: The magnetic field is measured with a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) sensor. The control system compares the measured value with the desired one and it calculates the reference current to feed the magnet. • The control system is developed in C. • The algorithm uses a non-linear fitting of the magnetic field to find the new reference current. Work documented in a report. Study of the current in use control system

  7. Main topic: new control system 3/4 error - PID Power supply MAGNET Switch NMR Hysteresis • New control under development using LabVIEWReal Time • Control loop • Use an industrial control: Proportional-integral-derivative control (PID) with anti-windup scheme • Develop a Hysteresis model to support the NMR during blind time • Matlab-Simulink is used as simulation software

  8. Main topic: new control system 4/4 These gains have to be tuned on the magnet to optimize the behaviour of the control system • Hysteresis model B H • Differential model: Coleman-Hodgdon • The model has 5 parameters which need to be tuned on real data Simulated hysteresis Thisactivityisstill on going PID control

  9. Partner company experience • Sidea : deal with design, development and distribution of innovative systems devoted to better performances in industry and research • When and where: May to August, near Milano (Italy) • LabVIEWReal Time • Familiarization with LabVIEWReal Time environment • Development of some projects on the communications between different devices • !CHAOS (Control System based on Highly Abstracted Operating Structure – but not a mess!) • New control system architecture proposed by IstitutoNazionale di FisicaNucleare for the SuperBaccelerator at Cabibbo Lab (Under development) • Aim of its design is to provide: redundancy of all its parts, intrinsic scalability and auto configuration

  10. Attended training courses and workshops • LabVIEWFor Expert, 24-28 October 2011 • C++ Part 2: Object-Oriented, 15-17 November 2011 • LabVIEWEmbedded Systems Application Design and Development Training (LabVIEWRT custom course), 10-13 July 2012 • Active Materials and actuators and Electronic and control for piezomechanisms in mechatronics (Custom course), 11-13 October 2011 • Training Sidea(Marie Curie partner company), 2 May-10 August 2012 • ISOLDE Workshop, 5-7 December 2011 • CERN Accelerator School on ION SOURCE (CAS), Senec 29 May-8 June 2012

  11. Future steps • Trainings to be scheduled • French course • Writing of professional documents course • Making presentation course • Working activity • Testing of the control system on a real magnet will be needed to tune the hysteresis model and the PID parameters • A feed-forward hysteresis compensation scheme is under study to further improve the magnet control • Study the problem of the magnetic field multipole error to understand which is its relation with the feeding current and to develop a model of this relation
