Splitting of Single Quadrupole Magnets

The Department of Energy, specifically the Jefferson Lab, is seeking a qualified contractor for the precision splitting and refurbishment of a 30-year-old single quadrupole magnet as part of the APS Magnet Refurbishment Project. The contractor will be responsible for separating the magnet into four quarters by machining out weld seams, non-destructively removing epoxy-encased copper coils, machining tapped holes, and fabricating custom aluminum tie plates and fixtures. This project is crucial for establishing a repeatable process for future refurbishments, ensuring meticulous handling and protection of critical components.
