The macromolecular crystallography beamline I911‐3, part of the Cassiopeia/I911 suite of beamlines, is based on a superconducting wiggler at the MAX II ring of the MAX IV Laboratory in Lund, Sweden. The beamline is energy‐tunable within a range between 6 and 18 keV. I911‐3 opened for users in 2005. In 2010–2011 the experimental station was completely rebuilt and refurbished such that it has become a state‐of‐the‐art experimental station with better possibilities for rapid throughput, crystal screening and work with smaller samples. This paper describes the complete I911‐3 beamline and how it is embedded in the Cassiopeia suite of beamlines.
