Advanced tracking system revolutionises robot welding in nuclear power sector
In the UK, an estimated 744,000m3 of nuclear waste must be safely contained between now and 2140. This monumental decommission is demanding rapid production of containers, however the shortage of skilled welders is just one of the many challenges facing the industry. With safety considerations being fundamental to all aspects of the nuclear industry, adoption […]
