Description

To achieve the tight alignment requirements demanded for CLIC, its components need to be pre-aligned on a common support within the micrometer range. Among these components, the main beam quadrupoles will be pre-aligned with respect to their magnetic axis by using the vibrating-wire technique. The measurement method and the characteristics of the PACMAN stretched-wire system will be illustrated. Preliminary measurement results taken on a CLIC main beam quadrupole will be presented and the compatibility of the stretched-wire system with the environment of a coordinate measuring machine will be discussed.
