A nose-cone single-gap buncher cavity for the Medium Energy Beam Transport (MEBT) has been fully designed, manufactured and measured under low-power conditions at ESS-Bilbao. The main steps of the design process are first reviewed. Second, the cavity is thoroughly measured and characterized by means of an automatic test procedure based on the bead-pull technique. Third, the simulated and measured results obtained for the main figures of merit are compared. Specifically, the results for the resonant frequency, the coupling and quality factors, the electric field profile, the R over Q ratio, the transit time factor and the tuning range are carefully analysed.
