Description

The multiple stud tensioners for the reactor vessels of the new Emsland and Neckarwestheim 2 convoy plants in FR Germany are built to handle 52 reactor pressure vessel studs with an M210X8 thread. They are equipped with two stud turning robots and a total of four stud elongation measuring devices so as to reduce the time taken for multi-stud tensioner operations on the vessel. (author)
