The IPCMS workshop is composed of 5 mecanicians who actively contribute to the development of the IPCMS experimental set-ups, from conception to partial or full realization.
The workshop harbors several conventionnal lathe and milling machines, and one numerical milling machine. All types of materials are machined, common and refractory metals, ceramics, plastics. Welding of aluminum, stainless steel and solder are mastered.
The workshop is strongly invoved in teaching, as for example through lectures and practicals given at the IUT Louis Pasteur. Since 2014, the workshop is welcoming trainees and apprentices in machining.
Involvement in large facilities:
The IPCMS worshop contributes to the development of the DEIMOS beamline at synchrotron SOLEIL. In particular it is involved in the development of the “CROMAG” end-station and its ultra-high vacuum environment.
