This accelerator is currently under construction at DESY. As well as the main production cavities for XFEL, 24 additional cavities are being constructed as part of the ILC-HiGrade program. The goal is to identify the gradient-limiting factors and further refine the cavity-treatment technique to understand how to achieve gradients above 35 MV/m at >90% production yield in an industrial context. Techniques such as 2nd sound and temperature mapping for the quench detection, OBACHT optical inspections, as well as Centrifugal Barrel Polishing (CBP) and Local Grinding repair are foreseen as tools. Actual status, details, and achievements will be reported.
