  The 2-m long CLIC module comprises four decelerating structures and two quadrupoles forming a FODO cell. Each decelerating structure powers two accelerating structures. Some accelerating structures are removed at regular intervals to liberate space for a quadrupole of a FODO lattice. The present layout of the standard and special modules is presented as well as the status of the system integration. The main requirements for the different sub-systems (alignment, supporting, stabilization, cooling and vacuum) are introduced together with the major integration constraints. For the key components the specification on pre-alignment and beam-based alignment tolerances is also recalled as well as their influence on the requirements of other sub-systems. For example the required stable thermal behavior and the tight tolerances of accelerating structure (the requirements for the accelerating structure pre-alignment is 0.014 mm at 1? ) in the CLIC linac largely directly the sizing and integration of the cooling system. The paper also covers the main issues related to the module integration in the tunnel. In the last part, the critical issues and future activities are summarized.

  In the CLIC concept, PETS (Power Extraction and Transfer Structure) role is to decelerate the drive beam and transfer RF power to the main beam. One of the CTF3 test beam line (TBL) aims is to study the decelerated beam stability and evaluate PETS performance. The PETS core is made of eight 800 mm long copper rods, with very tight tolerances for shape (± 20 micron), roughness (less than 0.4 micron) and alignment (± 0.1 mm). Indeed, they are the most challenging components of the tank. This paper reports about the methods of fabrication and control quality of these bars. A special test bench has been designed and manufactured to check the rod geometry by measuring the RF fields with an electric probe. Other parts of the PETS tank are the power extractor, the waveguides and the vacuum tank itself. Industry is partially involved in the prototype development, as the series production consists of 15 additional units, and some concepts could be even applicable to series production of CLIC modules

  The CLIC Power Extraction and Transfer Structure (PETS) is a passive microwave device in which bunches of the drive beam interact with the impedance of the periodically loaded waveguide and generate RF power for the main linac accelerating structure. The demands on the high power production (~ 150 MW) and the needs to transport the 100 A drive beam for about 1 km without losses make the PETS design rather unique and the operation very challenging. In coming years the intensive PETS testing program will be implemented. The target is to demonstrate full performance of the PETS operation. The testing program overview and test results available to date will be presented.

  In order to heavily damp the higher order modes of an accelerator structure for CLIC, two kind of damping mechanisms are implemented in one of the designs. Here each cell is equipped with electrically coupled damping channels in addition to the magnetically coupled waveguides. This design requires an assembly of longitudinally cut four quadrants to form a structure and the parts are necessarily made with milling. Since KEK has developed a high-precision machining of X-band accelerator cells with milling and turning at the same time, the experience was extended to the milling of this quadrant. Firstly, the fabrication test of a short quadrant was performed with multiple vendors to taste the present-day engineering level of milling. Following this, a full-size quadrant is also made. In this course, some of the key features are addressed, such as flatness of the reference mating surfaces, alignment grooves, 3D profile shape of the cells, surface roughness and edge treatment. In this paper, these issues are discussed from both fabrication and evaluation point of views.

  The Two-beam Test-stand in CTF3 will be used to investigate the power-generation and accelerating structures for the Compact Linear Collider CLIC. We report on its design and construction which was recently completed and discuss the imminent commissioning phase as well as the following experimental program that initially will be devoted to the test of power generation structures in the drive-beam.
