🚨 New Hardware Alert! 🚨 We've just welcomed our first stainless steel pressure vessel! This PV is a test article that will be integrated with our helium loop for sub-system testing of our reactor safety system later this year. Here are some key facts about the hardware: - Weighs 6 tons - Made of stainless steel - Forged by Scot Forge - Machined by Tech-Max Machine, Inc. - No welding and utilizes redundant seals Big congratulations to Dylan Bruening, Chris Hansen, and the rest of the Mechanical Engineering team! #PressureVessel #NuclearInnovation #Kaleidos #microreactor
We are proud to be a part of this huge milestone! Congratulations!
Few things bring a smile to my face like the sight of an exceptionally well forged pressure vessel
Dylan Bruening hell of a PV!!
You should do an explainer vid of design time, RFP process, lead time for materials at forge, procees / steps at forge, etc... Guarantee thousands of ppl want to know more. Also point out places in supply chain where innovators are building solutions or need to build solutions. Get #ChristianKeil and #JasonCarman - S3 Vidoes to work with you on it!
Beautiful! I don't think it would fit inside my mill turn work envelope 😅
Now THAT’S a pressure vessel! 👏👏👏 well done!
Looks like it could visit the Titanic....without incident
What alloy is it? Looks beautiful
