CGN's First Spatial Truss-Type Heavy-Duty Intelligent Warehouse Robot Piloted at Ningde Nuclear Power Project

Recently, the pilot project of CGN's first spatial truss-type heavy-duty intelligent warehouse robot, jointly launched by the Equipment Package and Supply Center and the Ningde Project Department, was officially put into operation at the Ningde Nuclear Power Project. The deployment and commissioning of this spatial truss intelligent warehouse robot marks a new stage for nuclear power engineering material warehousing, officially entering a three-dimensional, unmanned, and intelligent phase. As an intelligent device tailor-made for large-material scenarios in nuclear power engineering, the spatial truss intelligent warehouse robot breaks the limitations of traditional light-duty warehousing equipment. It adopts a robust truss-type structure and achieves millimeter-level precision control and multi-axis heavy-load capacity through X, Y, and Z three-axis spatial positioning, enabling...

DUNE Prototype Detector Undergoes 300 kV Pressure Test at CERN

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), an international collaborative project led by the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory under the U.S. Department of Energy, is conducting pressure tests on the prototype detector ProtoDUNE at CERN's Neutrino Platform to verify the long-term stability of the relevant detection technology under extreme operating conditions. DUNE is designed as a large-scale neutrino research experiment aimed at studying the properties of neutrinos and their role in the evolution of the universe. The experiment will install large liquid argon time projection chamber detectors approximately one mile underground at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in South Dakota, USA. Once the detectors are filled with liquid argon and sealed, internal components will be difficult to access for extended periods...

U.S. Confirms Order for Nine Virginia-Class Block VI Nuclear Submarines

The U.S. Department of Defense has confirmed that it has signed a contract modification agreement with General Dynamics Electric Boat to order nine Virginia-class Block VI multi-purpose nuclear-powered submarines. The statement said the contract is an incentive-based modification, and the submarines will be used by the U.S. Navy. Despite delays in General Dynamics' previous orders, both parties have moved forward with this new contract. On July 15, U.S. President Donald Trump had asked the company's management to accelerate the construction progress of U.S. Navy submarines. In addition to the Virginia-class submarines, the U.S. Department of Defense has also ordered five Columbia-class Type II ballistic missile nuclear submarines from Newport News Shipbuilding. Under the contract arrangement, related work is expected to be completed before July 2038...
