It is standard practice in cyclotrons to alter the extracted micro-pulse width by using center-region slits and/or by chopping the beam before injection. The macro-structure can also be varied by means of pulsed or sinusoidal deflection devices before injection and/or after extraction. All above methods, however, involve cutting away the unwanted beam, thus reducing the time-averaged intensity. This paper will focus on some methods used to alter the time structure of extracted beams without significant beam loss. For example radial gradients in the accelerating fields from rf cavities can be utilized to compress, expand or even split longitudinally the circulating particle bunches. The macro-structure of the extracted beam can be altered by employing resonant extraction methods and replacing the static magnetic bump with either a pulsed or a sinusoidal transverse perturbation. The methods are most suitable for H cyclotrons but may also be considered in a limited scope for cyclotrons using direct extraction. Results of computer simulations and beam tests on the TRIUMF 500 MeV H{sup {minus}} cyclotron will be presented
