The ESRF EBS consists of replacing the current double-bend achromat storage ring by a new ring based on a 7-bend achromat lattice. This will enable a reduction of the electron beam horizontal emittance by a factor of 30 (140pm horizontal emittance) and an increase of the brilliance and coherence of the photon beam. As a consequence, the storage ring stability (vibrational and thermal) is of major importance, which implies specific design issues. The engineering design of standard cell components is now completed, some prototypes have been built and most of the large procurement contracts have been placed with the objective to pre-assemble equipped girders from mid 2017 and install them from beginning 2019. After introducing the context and the expected gain from the new storage ring, this talk will focus on the main technical challenges and present the mechanical design solutions adopted for the magnets and other strategic components *. This presentation is given on behalf of the ESRF EBS engineering team. PB - JACoW Publishing CP - Geneva, Switzerland ER -
