Description

Besides beam characterization, cameras at our institute are also applied to acquire multipacting and cavity glowing effects during conditioning. To support these applications, additive manufacturing provides a fast, cost-effective, and flexible method for developing custom camera mounts precisely conformed to their specific positions, whether inside or outside a cavity.
In addition to its applications in the fabrication of camera mounts, additive manufacturing offers the capability to produce a radiation shielding enclosure using tungsten-filled filament (Prusament, PETG Tungsten 75%) for a camera installed inside a cavity. This shielding is utilized during the conditioning. Its effectiveness is assessed by comparing the resulting images with those obtained from an unshielded camera under equivalent conditions.
