The heavy ion beams would be easily lost at the vacuum chamber along the CSRm when it is used to accumulate the intermediate charge state particles. The vacuum pressure bump due to the ion-induced desorption in turn leads to an increase in beam loss rate. In order to avoid the complete beam loss, the collimation system is investigated in the CSRm. The beam loss distribution is simulated considering the particle charge exchanged process. Then the collimation efficiency of the lost particle is calculated and optimized under different collimator's position, geometry, and beam emittance and so on. Furthermore, the closed orbit distortion which is caused by different types of error in the ring will affect the collimation efficiency. The collimation efficiency of the lost particles in the CSRm is investigated by taking real magnet alignment errors into consideration. Two prototype collimators are under designing and will be tested in the CSRm.
