Abstract The University of Huelva in collaboration with the Andalusian Foundation for Health Research (FABIS) and the TTI Company is currently involved in developing and assembling a prototype for a compact superconducting proton gantry with the goal to generate a business case within the narrow niche of hadron therapy. This article presents the current status of the engineering design for the cryostat and beam steering system. An account for the mechanical deformations due to magnetic forces and weight is also presented.
