TI - Design of a Profile Monitor with 12 Inches of Actuation for FRIB J2 - Proc. of IBIC2014 AB - Actuated diagnostics present additional challenges that static diagnostics devices do not such as alignment, stability, and incorporating an appropriate drive mechanism. These challenges become even more apparent as the actuaded length increases. At the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) we plan on using a number of actuated diagnostics devices including a Profile Monitor (AKA: Wire Scanner) with 12 inches of actuation. The Profile Monitor uses tungsten wires to traverse the beam pipe aperture to measure the beam intensity with respect to it’s location in the X-Y plane. This paper will detail the design of the 12 inch Profile Monitor and how it is able to overcome the stability, alignment, and drive issues that come with the 12 inches of actuation.
