Europe s Third ITER Vacuum Vessel Sector Completed

The third Vacuum Vessel sector made by Europe is on its way to ITER. The world’s largest fusion device will house the plasma inside a doughnut-shaped container, consisting of nine sectors (five from Europe, four from Korea) welded together. Fusion for energy (F4E) is collaborating with the AMW consortium, formed by Ansaldo Nucleare, Westinghouse, and Walter Tosto, to manufacture Europe’s share.
