UNDERWATER ELECTRIC ARC CUTTING MANIPULATOR FOR HRT SCREEN REMOVAL
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4101218
A manipulator system, incorporating a simplified heliarc underwater cutting torch, was- designed, developed, and tested to perform the following remote functions: enter through the existing 2-in. HRT core access opening; pick up and transfer screens from the horizontal to a vertical position; latch and firmly clamp a screen against the manipulator mast; move a torch to permit the cutting of screen strips of predetermined width; and provide electrical signals to determine effectiveness of cuttirg. Detailed descriptions of equipment and manipulator operating specifications and procedures are included. (auth)
