In 2008, the Articulated Inspection Arm (AIA) performed its first deployment in Tore Supra tokamak vessel, under real vacuum and temperature conditions (10 −6 Pa and 120°C) after a conditioning phase to avoid pollution of the chamber. This full demonstration is a turning point in the project, allowing a second phase to start toward the objective to make use of the Remote Handling Equipment...
This work concerns the development of an ITER relevant advanced robotic systems for fusion reactor. The feasibility demonstration will be performed on the thermonuclear experimental Tokamak: Tore Supra, located in Cadarache facilities. The manipulator developed by the interactive robotics unit of CEA-LIST will be used for close inspection intervention tasks in a Tokamak. The robot must meet severe...
