ITER Toroidal Field Coils - Laser welding the radial plates

ITER Toroidal Field Coils Laser welding the radial plates Time lapse Fusion For Energy ASG - La Spezia - Italy Once the conductor has been fully insulated, the cover plates of the radial plate will be assembled on top of the radial plate grooves and laser welded. For each radial plate a total length of 1.5 km needs to be welded. During the welding process, three robots will be working simultaneously onto the radial plate. One of the main challenges is to minimise any deformation of the radial plate that wi
