Integracija krmilnika kolimatorja žarka protonov naprave za zdravljenje očesnega raka v krmilni sistem pospeševalnika protonov

Pogačnik, Matic (author), Butala, Peter (mentor), Vrabič, Rok (co-mentor)

Delo obravnava problem krmiljenja pospeševalnika protonov, ki predstavljajo klasičen mehatronski sistem, sestavljen iz mehanskega, električnega in programskega dela. Opisana so različna področja uporabe pospeševalnikov in njihovo delovanje. Poudarek je na njihovem krmiljenju in distribuiranem krmilnem sistemu EPICS, ki je namenjen prav takim sistemom. Problem naloge predstavlja integracija krmilnika motorjev Newport ESP301 v obstoječi krmilni sistem, ki mora zadostovati vsem potrebnim standardom. Namenjen bo krmiljenju kolimatorja, kateri je del nove izhodne šobe, ki se jo bo dalo uporabiti na obstoječem pospeševalniku za zdravljenje očesnega raka. Kot rezultat je bil razvit modul EPICS krmilnega sistema, katerega se lahko vključi v obstoječi krmilni sistem.

• Title: Integration of a controller for collimating the proton beam of a device for eye cancer treatment into the proton accelerator control system

Abstract

This thesis deals with the problem of controlling proton accelerator which represents a classical mechatronic system, as it consists of mechanical, electrical and software part. At the beginning, various areas of accelerator’s use and their operation will be presented. The main focus will be on control and distributed control system EPICS, that is intended for this kind of use. The problem of the paper represents integration of the Newport ESP301 motion controller in the existing control system, that must meet all the necessary standards. It's purpose will be to control the collimator, which is part of the new nozzle and will be used on an existing accelerator for eye cancer the treatment. As a result, the EPICS module of the control system was developed and can be integrated into existing control system.
