Remote handling

Remote Handling Facility will develop new robotic techniques, compatible with fusion hostile conditions; with the aim of validate the techniques to be applied at installations such as ITER or IFMIF.

TechnoFusión Facility will contribute to this knowledge with:

i) a large installation for the prototypes manipulation such as: Port Plug Diagnostic (DPP) of ITER, Test Blanket Modules (TBM) of ITER and Modules of irradiation of IFMIF, and

ii) an Irradiated Room coupled to the electron accelerator –Rhodotron®— in order to carry out validation, certification and characterization of RH tools and machines in an uniform ionizing field equivalent to ITER-DEMO trying to simulate the fusion reactor environment.
