Shanghai No. 1 Machine Tool Works Co., Ltd. recently received the 2018 National Science and Technology Progress Award (Special Class). This is the most prestigious award it has received over half a century of nuclear power equipment manufacturing.
As a manufacturer of major equipment for a national key nuclear island project, the company masters many key technologies in design, structure, material, welding, and special surface treatment whose requirements are totally different from those used in commercial reactor equipment. The new reactor poses considerably higher requirements for its cooling system in terms of operating temperature, nuclear fuel, and media, and no technical data at home and abroad is available for reference. Deeply involved in the project for the design, research, and production of its nuclear power system, the company has understood how high temperature coolant affects the raw material and welding material of nuclear power units; overcome stringent requirements of high-temperature, high-pressure, and easy-corrosive special media for material performance; solved welding problems and validated its reliability; and developed a special surface treatment technology for large thin-walled components and profiled components. With a set of technologies key to the project, the company has become a sole service provider for the operation and maintenance of major equipment.
Shanghai No. 1 Machine Tool Works Co., Ltd. starts off with Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant, and has created 18 records in China and around the world in terms of nuclear power equipment. It has been a solid benchmark in the market by creating a first-class brand image with advanced technologies, good quality, and high market share.
