The design and production of the proton beamline of SPP, which aims to educate accelerator physicists and serve as particle accelerator technologies test bench, continues at TAEK-SANAEM as a multi-phase project. For the first phase, the 20 keV protons will be accelerated to 1.3 MeV by a single piece RFQ. Currently, the beam current and stability tests are ongoing for the Inductively Coupled Plasma ion source and the measured magnetic field maps of the Low Energy Beam Transport solenoids are being matched to the RFQ acceptance with various beam configurations of the ion source by using computer simulations. The production of the RFQ cavity was started by using high grade aluminum material which will be subsequently coated by Copper to reduce the RF losses. The installation of the low energy diagnostics box was also completed. On the RF side, the development of the hybrid power supply based on solid state and tetrode amplifiers continues. All RF transmission components are already produced with the exception of the circulator and the power coupling antenna which are in the manufacture and design phases, respectively. The acceptance tests of the produced RF components are ongoing. This work summarizes the design, production and test phases of the above mentioned SPP proton beamline components.
