Researchers from ISOLDE used our facilities to make many different things. Using the water jet cutter we were able to quickly and cheaply create non-magnetic brass tools for their highly magnetic equipment.
A holder for wire spools was also made. Here we had to try out many different materials and designs before they arrived at something that could take the extreme conditions of the experiment. The researchers from ISOLDE have actually been given a workplace at IdeaSquare, as a close collaborator. They recently received the go-ahead for 4 different medical research projects that we are looking forward to participating in.
