Description

More than 1200 beam ducts in the SuperKEKB project required TiN coating on the internal surface to mitigate electron cloud effects and pre-baking before installation. To perform baking and TiN coating of many ducts, dedicated facilities were constructed at the KEKB Oho Laboratory. The coating facility has 5 vertical coating equipment systems for straight ducts and 3 horizontal systems for bent ducts. The thickness of TiN coating is about 200 nm by Ti sputtering in Argon and Nitrogen gases. The baking facility has 4 baking equipment systems and a hot-air heating method is employed. The targeted pressure after baking is below 1×10-7 Pa. Since the fall of 2012, these facilities have been in full-scale operation. A 10-person team is assigned for this task, and about 740 beam ducts were coated and baked so far. (author)
