OSTI ID:6862382
The Interim Examination and Maintenance (IEM) Cell at the Fast Flux Test Facility (FFTF) has two large Electro-Mechanical Manipulators (EMM's). These manipulators are used for cell operations (processing of reactor core components) as well as general cell maintenance. From our 8 years of operation and maintenance experience with these large EMM's, we have learned many lessons concerning manipulator design for hostile environments. This paper describes the IEM Cell EMM design features and discusses operating and maintenance experience at the IEM Cell.
