The HL-2 M tokamak is now under construction in Southwestern Institute of Physics in China. As one of the main auxiliary heating systems for HL-2 M tokamak, a new NBI beam line with 5 MW NBI power, 42° injection angle, based on 4 sets of 80 kV/45 A/5 s bucket ion sources with geometrical beam focus, is conceptually designed with geometrical calculation and engineering simulations. The preliminary structure and layout of key components including ion sources, neutralizers, ion dumps, deflection magnet, beam edge scraper, long pulse calorimeter target, short pulse calorimeter target, injection port and beam drift duct are determined. The magnetic shielding of the stray field of HL-2 M tokamak is analyzed. Beam power transmission efficiency is calculated with geometrical algorithm. The ratio of neutral beam injection power to ion beam power is as high as 48%.
