ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) - France
The ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) project is a large-scale international nuclear fusion research and engineering project. A collaborative project involving 35 countries aiming to demonstrate the scientific and technological feasibility of nuclear fusion as a large-scale and carbon-free source of energy. The construction of ITER began in 2010 and is expected to produce about 500 megawatts of thermal power during its experimental phase.
At Gantrex, innovation is part of our DNA. That is why our local Team Gantrex took pride in designing a tailored rail solution for this project located at Cadarache in the south of France. In the ITER project, rail systems play a crucial role in facilitating the movement of heavy components and machinery within the facility. Our RailLok™ products provide the foundation for efficient material handling and transportation contributing to the seamless functioning of critical operations within the ITER project.
Our recent inspection reaffirms the robustness of our solutions, ensuring safety and precision in every rail. We proudly share with you pictures from our latest inspection at ITER.
