IN 3D Printing NEWS:

Four first-of-a-kind 3D-printed fuel assembly channel fasteners have been installed and are now under routine operating conditions at unit 2 of the Tennessee Valley Authority’s (TVA’s) Browns Ferry nuclear power plant in Alabama. The components were produced at the US Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Manufacturing Demonstration Facility at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). Channel fasteners secure the fuel channel to the fuel assembly. These have traditionally been fabricated from castings and require precision machining.
