The invention belongs to the field of accelerator
assembly preparation, and discloses a method for preparing a
radio frequency quadrupole field accelerating cavity
assembly through 3D printing, distribution and use of
copper powder can be more accurately controlled by adopting a selective melting
powder laying printing technology, material waste or unnecessary
cutting loss in a traditional manufacturing method is avoided, and the
manufacturing efficiency is improved. The utilization efficiency of the material is greatly improved. In the
electron beam melting forming process, the
copper powder can be molten and solidified more evenly, and stress or defects generated by
machining on the surface and the interior of a material are reduced. According to the 3D printing technology adopted by the invention, complex geometrical shapes (such as detailed structures of a
radio frequency quadrupole field acceleration cavity) can be accurately manufactured in a vacuum environment, and the precise structures are difficult to
machine and form at one time in the traditional manufacturing process and need to be machined and assembled for multiple times. In conclusion, through the adoption of the 3D printing and
electron beam forming technology, the
manufacturing efficiency is improved, and the material waste is reduced.
