	The SAXS/WAXS Experimental End Station beamline (NCD-SWEET) at ALBA Synchrotron has undergone a major upgrade in the optics and the end station to perform state-of-the-art SAXS/WAXS experiments. In order to reduce X-ray parasitic scattering with air and maximize the photon flux at the sample, an optimized beam conditioning optics has been designed and built in the end station, integrating previously used and new components in vacuum. The beam conditioning optics includes a fast shutter, a set of commercial guard slits and a diagnostic unit com-prising three filters and a four-quadrant transmissive photodiode. In addition, a set of refractive beryllium lenses allowsμfocusing of the beam. The lens system can be removed from the beam path remotely. Finally, an on axis sample viewing system, with a novel design based on an in-vacuum camera mirror and a mica window minimizes the beam path in air up to the sample. To facilitate the alignment of the elements with respect to the beam, all the subsystems are supported by a high-stability granite table with 4 degrees of freedom and sub-micron resolution.

	The SAXS/WAXS Experimental End sTation (NCD-SWEET) at ALBA Synchrotron has undergone major improvements in three main areas, beam performance, SAXS detector data quality and beamline operability, in order to perform state-of-the-art SAXS/WAXS experi-ments. A new channel-cut monochromator system has improved the beam quality and stability, with current vibration amplitudes under 1% of the beam size. Two sets of refractive beryllium lenses have been installed for focussing the beam. One of the sets allows to microfocus the beam size. Besides this, the former SAXS CCD detector has been replaced by a single-photon counting pixel detector, a Piltatus3 S 1M. In the end station, a full re-design of the mechanical elements with sub-micron resolution movements together with the installation of new equipment has been completed, resulting in an improved beamline configuration, and a faster and safer rearrangement of the flight tube length. New upgraded configuration also allows for GISAXS experiments. Finally, other auxiliary improvements have been done in areas like radiation protection, air conditioning, health and safety, cable management, electronics and control.
