Abstract :
The KAON Factory will require over 2000 magnets to transport protons from the existing 500-MeV cyclotron through three storage rings and two synchrotrons and deliver them to the experiment area at 30 GeV. The magnet requirements are summarized and the results of measurements on prototypes for the 50-Hz booster magnets are compared with design values. The results of prototype work, some of the more difficult design aspects of other magnets, and the tolerances required to achieve production magnets uniform to +or-2 parts in 10/sup 4/ are discussed.<>
