Tecnatom will present in the next 13th European Congress of NDT the Project about the
Automated Analysis of Baffle Bolts. The congress will take place from 3rd to 7th of July in
Lisbon.
The Baffle Bolts are components presented in the Lower Internal in the reactor power Vessel of
PWR nuclear power plants. Each central has around 1000 components of the same type, and
they are required to inspect for Long Term operation of the Spanish nuclear power plants.
Tecnatom has developed AI algorithms which are able to give support to the analyst of the
component increasing the safety and reliability of the inspection process. The experience of
Tecnatom in non-destructive testing and its knowledge in AI has allowed this important
improvement in the nuclear sector.
