An accelerating complex for hadron therapy is proposed. Facility consists of two superconducting cyclotrons and is aimed to produce beams of 12C6+ ions with energy of 400 MeV/nucleon. Accelerator-injector is a compact 70 MeV/nucleon cyclotron. Main machine is separated sector cyclotron consisting of six magnets. Basic features of the main cyclotron are high magnetic field, compact size, and feasible design of a magnetic system. The advantages of the dual cyclotron design are typical of cyclotron-based solutions. The first design studies of the sector magnet of the main cyclotron show that the beam dynamics is acceptable with the obtained magnetic field. Due to its relatively compact size (outer diameter of 12 m) the complex can be an alternative to synchrotrons. Design study of the main cyclotron is described here.
