论文摘要

编织是西班牙拉帕尔玛(La Palma)威廉·赫歇尔(William Herschel)望远镜的主要重点的新型宽场光谱设施。它的纤维定位器对于精确放置光谱仪的960纤维多路复用至关重要。我们提供了纤维定位器的最终组装和计量概述,以及其机器人龙盘的实验室调试结果。为每个定位器机器人获得了一个全新的Z-gantry,测量值显示位置可重复性明显提高。我们还介绍了配置软件测试的第一个结果,并讨论了定位器到达天文台后必须重复的计量程序。

WEAVE is the new wide-field spectroscopy facility for the prime focus of the William Herschel Telescope at La Palma, Spain. Its fibre positioner is essential for the accurate placement of the spectrograph's 960 fibre multiplex. We provide an overview of the final assembly and metrology of the fibre positioner, and results of lab commissioning of its robot gantries. A completely new z-gantry for each positioner robot was acquired, with measurements showing a marked improvement in positioning repeatability. We also present the first results of the configuration software testing, and discuss the metrology procedures that must be repeated after the positioner's arrival at the observatory.
