During commissioning and routine operation of the MAX Ⅳ 3 GeV storage ring, the ability to measure the betatron tunes is important. For these measurements a shaker such as a stripline kicker is needed to excite coherent transverse oscillations of the beam within a narrow range of frequencies. In this paper, the design of this stripline kicker is described. Besides from operating as an active device during tune measurements, the stripline will also work as a BPM pick-up during normal operation.
