Proton Therapy
- Medium-sized Peli case
- Currently in Simon's office next to radiator.
- Install Thorlabs optical breadboard in base of case.
- Cut out
Completed
2022
- September
- Machine a patch panel complete with 10 smaller panels that can be swapped between on the main patch panel to allow for various electrical feedthroughs
- August
- Created CAD cross hair for Peli Case to be printed. Also created small printed windows to clamp Mylar smooth over the beam entry point.
- June
- Initiated design of large Peli Case. Received Lab scissor jack used to mount camera.
- May
- CAD Prototype a sliding system to mount multiple scintillator holders into a case
- February
- Create CAD model for small Peli Case so ideas on how to install the holder into the case can be prototyped
- July
- Created CAD models for internal components including:
- Scintillator holder.
- 2x Side Vice faces.
- 1x Front Vice face.
- Cover for beam entry point.
- These were printed soon after.
- Beam entry point was cut out of the case, piece was sent for testing with Adam Gibson.
- Machined two special 1/4-20 UNC screws for camera mount.
- Tapped all holes on Scintillator holder to take m5 nylon screws to allow vice faces to travel.
2021
- November
- Design initial prototype of a new holder that will clamp scintillator sheets together. Will supersede previous adhesive idea
- June
- Prepare scintillator sheets to be adhered together using standard primer
