Electromagnets are used to bend electron beams and generate X-ray light. Permanent magnets have many advantages over electromagnets and are being studied as an alternative for small bore accelerators. This paper focuses on the mechanical design of two holders. First, a holder for the corrector and tuner permanent magnet assembly, which aims to correct the errors in the permanent magnetic field strength and orientation. Second, a holder for the dipole-quadrupole magnet assembly, which aims to provide the required magnetic strength to steer the electrons. Prototypes for the corrector, tuner and dipole-quadrupole holders were designed and tested to validate conceptual design. Results show that the corrector magnets can be oriented into a prescribed configuration, the tuner magnets can be oriented simultaneously regardless of the magnetic forces involved, and the dipole-quadrupole magnets can provide the magnetic strength required to steer electrons.
