Abstract: The BEPCⅡ is the upgrade project of the Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPC). According to the BEPCⅡ double ring design scheme, a new ring will be added in the existing BEPC tunnel. The machine will provide electron and positron beams with an energy range from 1.0GeV to 2.1GeV for high energy physics research, and an electron beam of 2.5GeV, 250mA for synchrotron radiation. So actually there are three storage rings for the BEPCⅡ machine. Due to the limited space of the existing BEPC tunnel and the requirement of high luminosity, the antechamber type vacuum chamber is used, that makes the BEPCⅡ magnets' design and fabrication very difficult. In the paper the general features of the design and fabrication of several kinds of main magnets for the BEPCⅡ storage ring and its interaction region are introduced. And the magnetic field measurement results are presented.
