Abstract The robust conjugate direction search (RCDS) method, which is developed by X. Huang from the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, has high tolerance against noise in beam experiments and thus can find an optimal solution effectively and efficiently. In this paper, the RCDS method is used to optimize the beam collimation system for Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) of the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS). A two-stage beam collimation system was designed to localize the beam loss in the collimation section in CSNS/RCS. The parameters of secondary collimators are optimized with RCDS algorithm based on detailed tracking with the ORBIT program for a better performance of the collimation system. The study presents a way to quickly find an optimal parameter combination of the secondary collimators for a machine model for preparation for CSNS/RCS commissioning.
