Summary:The neutral beam injection (NBI) system was developed on the Experimental Ad- vanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) for plasma heating and current driving. This paper presents the brief history, design, development, and the main experimental results of the R&D of neutral beam injector on the test bed and on EAST. In particular, it will describe: (1) how the two beamlines with a total beam power of 8 MW were developed; (2) the design of the EAST-NBI system including the high power ion source, main vacuum chamber, inner components, beam diag- nostic system and sub-system; (3) the experimental results of beamline-1 on the summer campaign of EAST in 2014 and, (4) the status of beamline-2 and the future plan of EAST-NBIs.
