During a scheduled refueling outage, a nuclear utility required a temporary reactor head cover to support reactor vessel maintenance. To meet the project's technical requirements, the assembly also needed to be designed as a two-piece construction that would allow for entry through the containment hatch, all while supporting the customer's outage schedule.
A custom two-piece temporary reactor head cover manufactured from 4-inch plate, engineered to allow for entry through the containment hatch and complete with precision-machined custom studs for final assembly.
Master Machine managed the project from material procurement through final inspection, completing the machining, assembly, and inspection of the temporary reactor head cover. The finished assembly met the customer's technical requirements and outage schedule while providing the two-piece construction required for containment hatch entry.
As part of an advanced reactor new plant construction project, a customer required precision machining of nuclear safety-related containment building wall modules. The work demanded strict adherence to customer specifications over the course of a long-term construction program.
Nuclear safety-related, 1-inch-thick plate machined to the customer's specifications for use in containment building wall modules.
Master Machine supported the customer's advanced reactor new plant construction through a three-year machining program, completing the precision machining of safety-related plates to customer specifications in support of the containment building wall modules.
