Abstract Conceptual design report for the SPring-8 upgrade project (SPring-8-II) was published in November of 2014. Vacuum system for the targeted storage ring should handle some fateful boundary conditions, such as miniaturization of vacuum chamber and increase in number of photon absorbers resulting from the multi-bend achromat configuration. Furthermore, reuse of the existing tunnel brings the severe packing factor issue of vacuum components and the time constraints issue of one-year blackout. Considering the above circumstances, a concept of 12-m long vacuum chamber with welded integral structure was proposed to omit in-situ baking. The 12-m long chamber will be evacuated to ultra-high vacuum by ex-situ baking followed by NEG activation, and moved to the tunnel with special thin gate valves at both ends. Recently, the chamber material has been changed from aluminum alloy to stainless steel (SS) from the viewpoints of elimination of aluminum-SS transition space, beam vibration suppression, and superior outgassing property. Trial production of SS chamber is proceeding to establish appropriate manufacturing processes, while focusing on the accuracy of dimension and magnetic permeability.
