Aplicaciones de los productos
Valves and Actuators
In nuclear power plants, there are numerous valves and actuators that control the flow of fluids and gases in various systems. Spring wire may be used in the construction of valve springs or actuator springs to ensure precise and reliable operation under high temperatures and pressures. The quality alloys in spring wire can handle heat and corrosion risks and continue to perform.
Shock Absorption
Due to the chemicals present on a plant, nuclear facilities must be designed to withstand external shocks. Spring wire may be used in shock absorption systems to minimize the transmission of vibrations and protect sensitive equipment from damage. Its strong coiling ability and durable alloys help prevent potential disaster during these shocks.
Control Rods
Control rods are used to regulate the rate of nuclear reactions within a reactor core. These rods often contain springs that help control their movement. Spring wire with high strength and corrosion resistance properties is essential for ensuring the proper functioning of control rod mechanisms. Shaped wire may also be incorporated into the design of control rod assemblies to provide structural support and precise control of rod movement. The shape and properties of the wire can be tailored to meet specific design requirements, such as flexibility and corrosion resistance.
Reparación de buques
When constructing or repairing parts of vessels or machinery on a nuclear plant, the importance is obvious. It is essential that materials are welded to last and withstand the challenges of the industry. Our welding wire offers flexibility of alloy and technique to ensure the job is done correctly, and that plants are kept safe.
Fuel Assemblies
Shaped wire can be used in the construction of fuel assemblies for nuclear reactors. It may be employed as spacer grids or tie wires to maintain the correct spacing and alignment of fuel rods within the reactor core. These components play a crucial role in ensuring efficient heat transfer and preventing fuel rod vibrations.
