Abstract: To satisfy the requirements of HIRFL (Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou), series of experiments have been done to produce metallic ion beams. By now, numerous methods have been tested, in which MIVOC (Metallic Ion from Volatile Compounds), heating oven methods and plasma sputter methods are all included. According to the experiments, the results of using MIVOC methods and heating oven methods are very good. In most of our researches, emphasis was put upon the ion production of iron, Nickel, Tantanum, copper of different charge states. Among the ion beams we have obtained, 210 μA Fe11+, 175 μA Fe12+, 142 μA Fe13+, 25 μA Fe16+, 64 μA Ni10+, 57 μA Ni13+, 31 μA Ni15+ and 15 μA Ni16+ are representative results.
