The main dipole for the synchrotron went through an extensive design process to meet the stringent requirements. The local and integrated field quality was optimized. The residual field levels in the magnet gap were calculated and the dynamic behaviour of the dipole magnet was studied, both in 2D and 3D, using OPERA.
