Zusammenfassung:We report the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is designed to accelerate ion beams to 200 MeV per nucleon with 46 superconducting radio-frequency cryomodules. The FRIB driver linac uses quarter-wave resonators and half-wave resonators; with a total of 324 resonators, the linac is currently the largest heavy ion accelerator in the world. Production of jacketed resonators began in January 2014 and was completed in December 2019. Dewar certification testing of all the cavities was done before they were installed into cryomodules. The experience and lessons from more than 5 years of FRIB resonator production and certification testing are analyzed and summarized in this paper.
