Abstract The 1:3 scaled aluminum model of an Alvarez-type cavity with 10 gaps was used for comparison of simulation with measurement for the frequency and the electric field on axis. The scaled frequency is 325.224 MHz and an Alvarez cavity has a small frequency tuning range. With this scaled model it was possible to apply different stem configurations for each drift tube to damp parasitic modes and to increase the field stability. The new drift tubes have an optimized free-formed profile on the end plates in order to increase the shunt impedance. In special the assembly, positioning and alignment of the drift tubes can be tested and the frequency change can be investigated in this respect.
