Tohoku Univ: This is the “heart” of the next-generation synchrotron radiation facility

-High heat resistance and high magnetic force SmCo magnet LM-34SH released-

-Tokin reveals electromagnet before installation work-

Tohoku University:

The “heart” of the next-generation synchrotron radiation facility will be completed in 2023 on the Tohoku University Aobayama Campus.

Electronic component manufacturing
Tokin

“Manufacturing and preparation for installation of the electromagnet that is the heart” is underway in Sendai.

Installation work started locally in February, and the electromagnet that was about to be shipped was released. It was

What is a synchrotron radiation facility?

The electron beam that travels straight at the speed of light
Using the synchrotron radiation generated when the direction of travel is changed by an electromagnet,
It is a facility for observing the structure of matter at the nano level.
Also known as a “giant microscope.”

Tokin’s electromagnet:

Tokin has received an order for 527 units, which are the majority of electromagnets used in next-generation facilities.

Characteristics of “multipolar electromagnet”:

The production of “multipolar electromagnet” has been completed.

“Multipolar electromagnets” account for more than half of the 527 units, 330 units.

It has the role of preventing the diffusion of the beam and narrowing it down.

“Deflection electromagnet” that bends the beam greatly,
“Steering electromagnet” that fine-tunes the direction,
Continue to produce various magnets.

Tokin’s delivery record:

Large synchrotron radiation facility spring 8
Accelerator Experiment Facility J-PARC (Tokai Village, Ibaraki Prefecture)
Tokin has delivered various electromagnets.

Steadily build up a track record as an electromagnet manufacturer.

Large radiation facility
Spring 8

There are plans to upgrade Spring 8 in the future.

The Spring 8 upgrade plan will use five times as many electromagnets as the Sendai Synchrotron Radiation Facility.

Our track record as an electromagnet manufacturer shows a strong desire to receive orders if we are the best.
