  The LHCb detector will be upgraded during the Long Shutdown 2 (LS2) of the
LHC in order to cope with higher instantaneous luminosities and to read out the
data at 40 MHz using a trigger-less readout system. The current LHCb main
tracking system will be replaced by a single homogeneous detector based on
scintillating fibres. This contribution gives an overview of the scintillating
fibre tracker concept and presents the experience from the series production
complemented by most recent test-beam and laboratory results.
