Digital assistances in remote operations for ITER Test Blanket System replacement: an experimental validation

Résumé

Removal/reinstallation of all Test Blanket System (TBS) equipment present in the Port Cell is required during the ITER Long Term Shutdown. TBS shall be designed so that occupational radiation exposure can be As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) over the life of the plant to follow the ITER Policy. The expected level of radiation in this area still allows performing maintenance tasks hands-on. However, the cumulated dose could be significant for operators. Classical Dose Reduction Measure (DRM) is to deploy Remote Handling systems. Consequently, use of robotized equipment, remotely operated means or collaborative robotics, have been investigated. Taking advantage of new digital technologies such as digital assistances, is expected to help operators during complex remote operations under limited vision conditions. Experiments were performed on a set of three TBS maintenance representative tasks: remote visual inspection of DN80 pipe, dye penetrant testing operation on pipe and dexterity test. A panel of remote handling equipment operators of different skill level was selected and involved onto these tasks The results prove without ambiguity that for all operators the quality of the task execution is significantly improved when using digital assistances
