Abstract :
For a 10 m long superconducting dipole prototype magnet for CERN´s LHC program in total 17 dummy and superconducting coils were manufactured at ELIN company. The paper presents measurements taken during coil manufacturing. The results are compared to results obtained on models. The influence of cable dimensions on the final dimension and the Young´s modulus of the coils is described
