	Each of the 10³ XFEL modules foreseen for the EU-XFEL as well as the 3,9 GHZ injector module is equipped with a combination of beam position monitors, superconducting quadrupole and a gate valve connected to the beam position monitor. The subunits are prequalified by the different work package of the EU-XFEL collaboration and handover to the DESY cleanroom. These subunits are assembled in the DESY ISO 4 cleanroom to unit named BQU, quality controlled in respect of cleanliness and handover in status “ready for assembly in ISO 4 cleanroom” for string assembly to the ISO 4 cleanroom located at CEA France. Series production started with production sequences of one unit per week and needed to be accelerated up to five or six units per month (>=1.25 units per week) in beginning of 2015. Analysis of data taken during production and the optimization of work flow for higher production rates are presented.

Longitudinally-welded 72 mm ID service pipes (HSP) made from titanium grade 2 is used by the two suppliers of the helium tanks for the EU-XFEL accelerator. From the perspective of the PED DESY is legally designated as the manufacturer and is responsible for conformity to all relevant codes. During module assemblies at CEA Saclay the orbital welds of the interconnection bellows between cavities showed pores with dimensions outside the specifications set by DESY. These welds needed to be redone which caused a project delay of several months. The X-ray examination of the HSP showed that the pipes already exhibited many out-of- DESY spec pores in the longitudinal welds and were most likely the main cause of the problems in the orbital welds. It was decided to replace the extremities of the service pipes with seamless titanium tubes both on “naked” helium tanks as well as on tanks with cavities already welded in. At DESY more than 750 service pipes were exchanged over a period of 2 years. The qualification of the repair line according to PED regulation and the prove with RF test at 2 K that the repairs do not influence the high performance of the s.c. cavities were done.
