  A center for cavity processing R&D at Fermilab, called the Integrated Cavity Processing Apparatus, is currently in the final stages of installation and commissioning. This facility contains centrifugal barrel polishing, a horizontal electropolishing tool, a 1000°C vacuum furnace, a high pressure rinse tool utilizing ultrapure water, ISO class 4, 5 and 6 clean rooms for cavity assembly work and various other associated pieces of support equipment. All the operations are designed for single cell and nine cell 1.3 GHz Tesla type cavities except for the electropolishing tool which will initially be only for single cell use. Upgrades are currently being examined for single and five cell 650 MHz cavities. The current status of the facility and plans for future work are discussed.
