Product Innovation: From our historical development of PWR power generation for the French (RCC-M) and US (ASME III) programmes our knowledge and skills have developed across the global technologies: CANDU, VVER, China CPRs and India PHWRs. Applying our skills to the latest generation of EPR power plants whilst partnering with developing technologies and sciences such as CERN, ITER, small modular reactors, and marine vessels.
With design engineers looking to optimise product
performance in environments with temperatures simulating that of the sun or approaching zero kelvin whilst supporting the need for properties such as being superconductive or non-magnetic whilst retaining the essentials of mechanical and physical performance the need for a ‘partner’ from concept to delivery is essential. Some of our recent major partnerships include: ITER: 35 nations collaborating to build the world’s largest
tokamak, a magnetic fusion device designed to prove the feasibility of fusion as a large-scale and carbon-free source of energy based on the same principle that powers our sun and stars.
ITER is designed to produce a ten-fold return on energy
(Q=10), or 500MW of fusion power from 50MW of input heating power.
We are proud to have developed a unique tube profile in modified 316L for the superconducting magnet system of Poloidal Field (PF) coils in addition to providing nuclear specification circular tubes on the Toroidal Field (TF) coils. CERN: The Large Hadron Collider (LCH). We are a part of it – and a very important one, providing unique specification tubes in DMV 316LN. These are the tubes where the actual collisions take place. Our products could not be any closer to the action.
Product forms: Our product forms complement our round tube and pipes with profiles, serpentine coils, cutting and machining to form products to unique customer requirements.
Global manufacturing – local service: MST brings together the skills and talents in our manufacturing facilities in France, USA, Germany and Italy to provide the optimum solution. With over 50 years of history partnering with our
global nuclear customers the next generation of nuclear technologies brings with it both the opportunity and the expectation for innovation and adaptability in the supply chain – something the nuclear team at MST is fully positioned to meet. ■
