​South Korean Journalists Visit Meyer Tool

July 22, 2013
​
Picture
A group of South Korean journalists (print and television) visiting Fermilab during the week of the ILC Global Design completion ceremony requested a chance to visit local companies doing Superconducting Radio Frequency (SRF) related projects with Fermilab. Fermilab and the RISP project in South Korea (a heavy ion accelerator similar in concept to FRIB currently under construction) have a collaboration understanding in which Fermilab is assisting RISP in SRF and accelerator development. Meyer Tool was contacted by Dr. Charlie Cooper of Fermilab’s Illinois Accelerator Research Center and a visit on June 12, 2013 was arranged.

Accompanying Mr. Chang Ho Park of RSIP were five South Korean journalists, Mr. Paul Olderr, a Senior Fabrication Specialist at Fermilab and, acting as an interpreter, a Fermilab post-doc in Experimental Beam Physics, Dr. Moses Chung.

The journalists were primarily interested on how Fermilab and local industry collaborated. The transfer of new technology from the laboratories and the application of precision fabrication techniques to meet the needs of accelerator science were of special interest. Meyer Tool, whose association with Fermilab goes back to the Laboratory’s original construction, was pleased to host this event and show off our facility and people.

Ed Bonnema, Meyer Tool’s VP of Operations, guided the tour. Through Dr. Chung, he spoke about the long collaboration between Fermilab and Meyer Tool. A Fermilab commissioned SRF niobium cavity currently at Meyer Tool for liquid helium jacketing was viewed and the interactions between the lab and Meyer Tool for this type of project were discussed. The journalists were especially interested in the CESR-B type 500MHz Cavity cryostat currently under construction at Meyer Tool. This cavity Cryostat is one of many similar cryostats built by Meyer Tool for Cornell University-style 500MHz SRF cavities used in light sources throughout the world. This particular cryostat is the second of two that Meyer Tool is providing Advanced Energy Systems for eventual commissioning at the NSLS II at Brookhaven National Lab.

Mr. James Lyu of the SBS Network, recorded a report for South Korean television and did short interviews of both Mr. Olderr and Mr. Bonnema.

While hosting this visit was a break from the ordinary for the experienced and dedicated staff of Meyer Tool, we are often involved in outreach activities that support our mission to provide “Manufacturing for a positive impact on the world, this generation and beyond.”
