Manufacturing of the Wendelstein 7-X divertor and wall protection

The in-vessel components of Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) with a total surface of 265 m2 comprise the divertor and the wall protection. The high heat flux (HHF) and lower heat flux (LHF) target, the baffle, the end plates closing the divertor chamber, a cryo vacuum pump (CVP) and a control coil form one divertor unit. Steel panels and the graphite heat shield protect the wall, including the ports. The HHF target elements, the steel panels and the control coils are manufactured by industry. The remaining components will be manufactured by the Max-Planck-Institute für Plasmaphysik (IPP) at its Garching workshops. For all components the final acceptance tests will be performed by IPP. This paper summarizes the main aspects for manufacturing, the preceding development and qualification tests as well as the final acceptance tests for the in-vessel components.
