Test Blanket Module Information Day meeting held at F4E

An Information Day on the opportunities in fabrication development activities for the European Test Blanket Modules (TBM) for ITER was held at the F4E offices on 9 March.

The objective was to provide interested companies with basic administrative and technical information  related to the coming call for tenders for the “Supply of preliminary fabrication and welding procedure specifications and feasibility mock-ups (FMU) for TBMs EUROFER subcomponents” which are expected to be published later this month.

Representatives from approximately 45 companies attended the event which included presentations on the technical details of the European TBMs to be tested in ITER, the EU TBM project organisation, the TBM’s fabrication studies performed in the past and background information about the upcoming calls.
