  New injector called RILAC2 was designed and constructed to provide intense uranium beams with A/q≈7 with an energy of 0.67 MeV/u which are injected to the succeeding ring cyclotron, RIKEN Ring Cyclotron, called RRC. After the last LINAC conference where the commissioning of the RILAC2 was reported, some modifications and improvements with RILAC2 have been made aiming at stable operation. Recently, transmission efficiency and stability of the beams have been improved and the average beam current more than 20 pnA for uranium 345 MeV/u acceleration has been realized. In this paper the modifications and improvements of the RILAC2 together with the present performance are reported.
