The continuous wave (CW) operated HElmholtz LInear ACcelerator (HELIAC) is going to reach the next milestone with the commissioning of the superconducting (SC) Advanced Demonstrator cryomodule, comprising four SC Crossbar H-mode (CH) cavities and SC steerer magnets. In parallel with the commissioning of the SC main accelerator, the normal conducting injector consisting of an ECR ion source, a RFQ and two Interdigital H-mode (IH) cavities will be built based on an Alternating Phase Focusing (APF) beam dynamics scheme. Both IH cavities will provide a beam energy gain from 300 keV/u to 1400 keV/u with a maximum mass to charge ratio of 6, requiring only one external quadrupole triplet and beam steerer elements between them. The APF concept allows stable and effective beam transport with transverse and longitudinal focusing, enabling an efficient and compact design. Due to the stringent requirements of the APF concept on the voltage distribution and the CW operation, optimization of each cavity in terms of RF, mechanical and thermal properties is crucial for successful operation of the HELIAC injector. The current layout of the APF based and CW operated injector will be presented.
