The Arcminute Microkelvin Imager is a pair of interferometer arrays operating with six
frequency channels spanning 13.9-18.2 GHz, with very high sensitivity to angular scales 30''-
10'. The telescope is aimed principally at Sunyaev-Zel'dovich imaging of clusters of galaxies.
We discuss the design of the telescope and describe and explain its electronic and
mechanical systems.
