AbstractAramis, the hard-X-ray undulator line at the free-electron laser SwissFEL at the Paul Scherrer Institute, has been in user operation at full beam energy since the end of 2018. After steady improvements of the performance until 2022, it proved difficult to maintain the achieved performance level in recent years. Now, after a systematic re-alignment and recalibration of the undulator line and a subsequent optimization of all relevant machine parameters, we have reached a new record photon pulse energy of 1 mJ at 12 keV photon energy. This contribution describes the steps taken and lessons learned to achieve and maintain this high level of performance.
