« Quelles compétences high-tech belges dans le projet ITER ? »

ITERBELGIUM Networking Event - March 4th 2015

The Belgian research institutions and industrial companies participating in the ITER project are up till now mainly involved in niche segments that are crucial for the project, such as extreme plasma heating (till 150 million degrees) (IPP KMS), cryostats (AMOS, ALM, CSL) and solutions for extreme cryo refrigeration (Mayekawa), high tech metal seals (HTMS), robotics and radiation proof electronics (Magyics, SCK°CEN, KU Leuven), quality control systems (AIB Vinçotte), heavy lifting and engineered transport (Sarens),…..

More information on these companies can be found in the presentations below.
