The "Hualong One Independent Innovation Journey" themed interview event was successfully held in Lüsi Port, Qidong, Jiangsu, China

en.Wedoany.com Reported - On September 14, the "Hualong One Independent Innovation Journey" themed interview event was held in Lüsi Port, Qidong, Jiangsu, China.

"Hualong One" is China's third-generation pressurized water reactor nuclear power technology with fully independent intellectual property rights. It is known as the "national calling card" of nuclear power and a pillar of national strength, marking that China's nuclear power technology has joined the world's front rank. As one of the important industrial platforms of China National Nuclear Corporation for laying out intelligent manufacturing and cultivating new quality productive forces, the "Heneng Intelligent Manufacturing" Qidong Intelligent Manufacturing Base carries the important mission of transforming cutting-edge manufacturing capabilities in the nuclear industry into the field of high-end civil equipment.

The base covers an area of approximately 311 mu and is planned to build 7 core production lines, supported by intelligent unmanned warehousing, and can provide full-process services such as intelligent flaw detection, anti-corrosion treatment, and pickling. The base is scheduled to be fully completed and put into operation by the end of 2026, with production capacity sufficient to meet the nuclear power pipeline prefabrication needs of 6 Hualong One units at the same time, providing solid intelligent manufacturing support for the batch construction of Hualong One.

During the event, the media group visited up close the operation of the intelligent production lines at the Qidong Intelligent Manufacturing Base. From the intelligent production of a single pipeline to the digital and intelligent control of the entire production line, everyone intuitively felt the profound changes taking place in nuclear power construction.

Among them, the intelligent non-destructive testing and evaluation technology, that is, the technology that performs a "deep physical examination" on welds, attracted attention. This technology consists of a multi-robot collaborative operation system composed of a radiographic testing operation robot, a film operation robot, and an image quality indicator operation robot. It automatically completes film retrieval and delivery, precise focusing, and testing operations, and through spatial accessibility assessment and segmented testing strategies, achieves efficient and precise non-destructive testing of complex welds. In short, without damaging the pipeline, the internal quality of the weld can still be clearly seen.

In addition, multiple core technology highlights, such as full-process identification tracking and intelligent recognition technology, automatic spray painting, drying, and anti-corrosion treatment technology, and multi-robot collaborative adaptive learning control technology, can also achieve effects such as giving each pipeline an "ID card," putting an "anti-corrosion coat" on pipelines, and enabling multiple robots to "fight as a team," becoming a portrayal of new quality productive forces empowering independent innovation in nuclear power.
