Discussion on PR suspension modification Participants: Takahashi, Barton, Sekiguchi, Okutomi, Fujii, Shoda ----- == Plan IP == * IP packaging * The base plate should be smaller. -> Ask Uraguchi-san * We do not want the cylinder between the base plate and the plate for the LVDTs. * In NIKEF IP, they support the LVDT plates with 3 poles. -> '''Can we get that CAD drawing? (Takahashi)''' * Position of the IP leg * The resonant freq. in YAW is higher than 0.1 Hz with the current design. If we want resonant freq. lower than 0.1 Hz, legs should be closer to the center. -> '''What is the requirement for the IP resonant freq? (Fujii)''' * EQ stop for BF * EQ stop for the BF should be connected to the IP base or the LVDT plate. Not on the SF plate because of the back action of the EQ stop resonance. -> Ask Uraguchi-san * Jacks beneath the legs * The top plate can be modified so that we can put the jacks on the top plate, and put the top plate directly on the inner frame. -> Ask Uraguchi-san * Damper for BF * Do we need the passive damper on the BF like the SF in the Type-B? -> '''Check (Fujii)''' ---- == Plan BF == * Sensors and actuators on the BF * We can have 3 sensors and actuators to actuate T, L, and Y, which is like IP sensors and actuators. Then, alignment structure in YAW on SF may not be necessary. * We have to suspend additional structure from the Traverser -> '''Check the capability of the load on the Traverser (Shoda)''' * The way to modify the BF cap should be investigated further (comment by Akutsu) ==== In case we have actuators on the EQ stop ==== * The resonance of the EQ stop is the biggest problem. * We may need the damper for the EQ stop. -> '''Structure analysis (Shoda)''' ==== In case we have the BFRM ==== * How much weight do we need for BFRM? -> '''Simulation (Shoda)''' * If we have fancy shape of the BFRM, we may not need to modify the EQ stop around the BF. -> '''Check (Shoda)'''
