Experimental investigations were performed to evaluate the focusing properties of the plasma focus for high-energy intense ion beams manipulating. Magnetic probes and optical spectroscopy were used for temporal and spatial plasma geometry investigations. Ion beam portrait was determined at the luminescence screen. In the experiments performed, the focusing coefficient was obtained as the ten times beam compression at the 30 cm length. By variations of the gas volume input, gun voltage, time
