  The CE stamping of the one hundred 1.3 GHz cryomodules for the XFEL Linac is a main step in the process of the certification of the entire Linac as a pressure equipment. Stringent requirements on materials and the quality of the welds of the pressurised components need to be satisfied to obtain the stamp. This paper summarizes these requirements, describes the process developed to qualify each module and summarises the rework campaign on the cavity helium vessels made necessary to obtain the required quality for a reliable and safe accelerator.

  Marui Galvanizing Co. Ltd. has been studying Vertical Electro-Polishing (VEP) on Nb superconducting accelerator cavity with the goal of mass-production and cost-reduction of Electro-Polishing (EP) process in collaboration with KEK and CEA Saclay. And we invented variable-geometry wings cathode for VEP process to get uniform distributions of both electric current and EP solution flow. Using this cathode, we performed various tests of VEP with Nb single-cell cavities. In this article, we will report the results of vertical test of Nb single-cell cavity which is VEP’ed by cathode with variable-geometry wings.
