	The ESS-Bilbao RFQ operates at 352.2 MHz. The machining of the four RFQ segments has finished and the assembly and tuning operations will follow shorly. The static tuning and field flatness are provided by an array of 60 plunger tuners, distributed along the 3.2 meters length of the structure. There are four tuners per segment per quadrant, except for one of the segments where the ports are used by the power couplers. A bead-pull setup will provide the measurements of the field profiles, that will be collected in a matrix built up with the contributions of individual tuners. The conventional approach of inverting the matrix to get the optimum tuners distribution is explored, as well as additional optimization method. Particularly, a genetic optimization algorithm provides a very succesful tuning of the RFQ. The solution provided by this approach will be used as the initial configuration of the tuners before the bead-pull measurements are carried out. Additionally, static and dynamic tuning of the RFQ is studied by high performance computing simulations of the RFQ. The analysis of the in-house computational electromagnetics suite used for these tasks is also discussed in this paper.

The ESS-Bilbao RFQ operates at 352.2 MHz. The machining of the four RFQ segments has finished and the assembly and tuning operations will follow shorly. The static tuning and field flatness are provided by an array of 60 plunger tuners, distributed along the 3.2 meters length of the structure. There are four tuners per segment per quadrant, except for one of the segments where the ports are used by the power couplers. A bead-pull setup will provide the measurements of the field profiles, that will be collected in a matrix built up with the contributions of individual tuners. The conventional approach of inverting the matrix to get the optimum tuners distribution is explored, as well as additional optimization method. Particularly, a genetic optimization algorithm provides a very succesful tuning of the RFQ. The solution provided by this approach will be used as the initial configuration of the tuners before the bead-pull measurements are carried out. Additionally, static and dynamic tuning of the RFQ is studied by high performance computing simulations of the RFQ.
