15. Assembly station Movable suspension beam
The assembly station allow the connection of the sTGCs wedge with the MM spacer frame
Concept:
The spacer frame is hanged in a vertical plane (horizontal axis) thanks to an horizontal beam
The sTGCs are brought in front of the spacer frame thanks to a carrier
The sTGC is positioned vertically and horizontally thanks to the carrier adjusting system
The sTGC is attached to the MM spacer frame
When both sTGC are connected the load could transfer between the carrier to the MM spacer frame
Vertical pillars anchored in the floor

sTGC carrier
Required function :
Support the weight of the sTGC chambers (about 300kg)
Transport safely the chamber from b180 to b191
Allow the precise positioning of sTGC respect to the MM Spacer Frame for connection
Made out with extruded profiles (available in b609)
Will be fabricated and assembly internally

17. 5. The design, FDR and procurement of the NJD/NSW transport tooling
The design of the tooling is well advanced and ready for FDR and procurement
The detail manipulation scenario has been studied for the following localisations and functions:
In b191 – loading and transport preparation
Trailer interface during the transport and climatic protection
SX1
trailer unloading operation and lifting operation
BZ organisation for storage and crossing to side A
UX15 for load transfer on the rail of HF truck
All the logistics associated with the transport
Remaining tasks
Prepare FDR, fall 2017

Conclusion
NJD/NSW is an important project for LS2, by the size and the number of persons involved, but it is crucial for the future performance of ATLAS.
TC is involved with a large responsibility in the supporting structures (NJD and NSW) design, procurement and assembly operations.
TC will be involved in the sector assembly operation on the NSW. (for 2018 and 2019)
A large fraction of the TC is/is going/will to be involved for this project.
The assembly of the NJD will start in August with the objective to have both NJDs assembled before the YETS.
The construction phase will last until the completion of both NJD/NSW and then TC will be in charge of the transport up to UX15 (2019 and 2020) .
