Abstract :
A discussion is presented of the experience gained during the production of a 1-m-long, twin-aperture, 10-T dipole magnet for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) magnet development program of CERN. The experience consists partly of technical solutions and partly of special attention items. Also discussed are the two main tooling items: the winding machine and the curing and collaring press. The fabrication process is outlined, along with aspects of project management
