  For the Super Separator Spectrometer (S3) [1] currently under construction on Spiral 2 facility, metallic beams of high intensities must be delivered to impinge a target aiming to produce rare radioactive isotopes for fundamental nuclear studies. First requested beams are 58Ni, 48Ca, 50Cr, 50Ti or 50V with an intensity about 1,2.1013 pps. The metallic ion beams will be produced by the Phoenix V3 ECR ion source combined with a resistive oven newly designed to cope with the beam specifications. The evaporation of low vapor pressure metallic elements (Ti, V…) requires temperature within a range of 1900°C to 2000°C. A new design of a resistive oven has been developed for this purpose. The oven reached 2000°C in a test vacuum chamber during 8 days. It has worked out in the Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source ECR4 at GANIL for Titanium beam production. Further tests using this ion source are under preparation for Ti and V beam production. Flux and angular distribution of atoms released by the oven are going to be measured off-line for optimizing crucibles geometries. Finally, the oven will be integrated into the Phoenix V3 ECRIS for Ti and V production.
