The heavy-ion synchrotron SIS100 is the core machine of the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research - FAIR in Darmstadt, Germany. It is capable of accelerating a large range of ions, produced by the injector (GSI), up to highly relativistic velocities and extract them for unique experiments (e.g. APPA/SPARC). In order to cool such beams of heavy, highly charged ions, laser cooling was considered to be the best option. Therefore, plans to set up a laser cooling pilot facility at the SIS100, as the only in-ring experiment, are currently being executed. We will present this project and give an update of its current status. Finally, we will show which kinds of ions could be used for first experiments.
