Abstract

The Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research is now fast approaching its realization phase. Roughly 800 superconducting magnets are required for the SIS100 and the Super-FRS machines. Given their long lead time of procurement for this large number of items, the SIS100 dipoles series is already ordered with the quadrupole modules following swiftly. The Super-FRS dipole and multiplets are being tendered. In a second realization phase the SIS300 accelerator will be built and placed in the same common tunnel as the SIS100. We report the status of magnet production of the different projects together with the experiences obtained during the manufacturing process of the first SIS100 series dipole.
