Description
UKAEA RACE - RAICo are investigating the use of through wall manipulators in hazardous nuclear decommissioning site locations. The development and ultimate deployment of high technology, high performing handling systems is a key element in addressing numerous use cases that have been aligned with the RAICo programme. In doing so, RAICo will play a vital part in removing operators from high hazard nuclear decommissioning environments, providing a safe remote working environment, hot cells with a remote handling capability being one example of these. This PIN seeks to determine the current and future market capability in terms of candidate robot manipulators that are, or could be, capable of operating in place of human operators in a hot cell environment.
