AbstractMAX 4U is an upgrade project of the MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring, to be realized by the early 2030’s in Lund, Sweden. The goal of the upgrade is to reduce the horizontal electron beam emittance to below 100 pm.rad. A new magnet lattice will be used, thus the vacuum system will have to be adapted to follow the new beam orbit of MAX 4U. Several lattices imposing the most severe changes to the beam orbit were studied. One proposal for the MAX 4U vacuum system is to re-use and adapt under vacuum the shape of the MAX IV 3 GeV ring vacuum chambers (coated with non-evaporable getter (NEG) thin film) by bending-to fit to the new magnet lattice. In such scenario, the vacuum system will not be vented, thus the NEG coating will not have to be re-activated. Such approach is very cost-effective and reduces the installation and commissioning time to the minimum. This scenario is presented here, together with the performed simulations, validation studies and tests.
