"I have been continually impressed by Larsen’s attention to detail in following through on all aspects of our orders. Their willingness to work towards extremely tight tolerances that are normally unthinkable in the stamping industry has measurably contributed to the success of our conventional and superconducting magnet program"
Gregory Kobliska Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory
Fermilab Dipole Magnet Project
When Fermilab, a U.S. Department of Energy lab, approached Larsen about its Dipole Magnet for the Main Injector ring fro the Tevatron 1 mile diameter accelerator ring, Larsen knew that it was an evolutionary step for the company. Nothing like it had ever been tried before. Our designers met the task head-on and worked quickly to engineer a way to create the steel laminations that would be assembled into a metal core, which would house the magnet’s copper coil. New equipment, new processes and new quality control procedures all followed and resulted in Larsen producing 25,000 to 30,000 parts a week, exceeding Fermilab’s expectations.
