The Low-Energy Beam and Ion Trap facility LEBIT at the NSCL is in the final phase of commissioning. Gas stopping of fast fragment beams and modern ion manipulation techniques are used to provide beams for high-precision mass measurements and other experiments. The status of the facility and the result of first test mass measurements on stable krypton isotopes are presented.
