The Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) is a 3 GeV synchrotron facility and aimed to have a low emittance electron beam maintaining the top-up operation. A 12-m long TPS injection section contains four kicker ceramic chambers (K1~K4) and one out-of-vacuum injection septum to provide the stored beam a horizontal bump for beam injection off axis. The kickers (K2, K3) and injection septum are placed in an adjustable plate, which can provide a 5 mm displacement for the injected beam close to the stored beam so as to decrease the kicker strength. The construction of the injection section is completed and we will describe the design, manufacturing process and some test results for the injection section.
