Description

Cutting edge techniques concerning about laser processing and eddy current testing are going to be combined in order to develop a new robot system for repairing heat exchanger on next generation Fast Breeder Reactors. The new robot system consist of sub-modules following with a snake shaped long body, a hybrid optical fiber scope, eddy current testing units, a laser processing head, a coupling device foe laser and image, an image processor and processing laser systems. Three sections in Japan Atomic Energy Agency are now developing the sub-modules independently to unit them for the complete new robot system in 2009. (author)
