CERN’s R&D programme on the Superconducting Proton Linac’s (SPL) superconducting radio frequency (SRF) elliptical cavities made from niobium sheets explores new mechanical design and consequently new fabrication methods, where several opportunities for improved optimization were identified. A stainless steel helium vessel is under design rather than a titanium helium vessel using an integrated brazed transition between Nb and the SS helium vessel. Different design and fabrication aspects were proposed and the results are discussed hereafter.

The PI-Mode Structure (PIMS) of Linac4 consists of 7-cell cavities made from alternating OFE copper discs and rings welded together with electron beam (EB) welding. A full-scale prototype cavity of almost 1.5 m in length has been manufactured, assembled, and tested at CERN to prepare the series production of 12 PIMS cavities as part of an international collaboration. This paper reports on the construction experience including machining operations, EB welding, vacuum brazing, and metrological measurements results.
