Safely Stripping Uranium Vessel Liners

Safely Stripping Uranium Vessel Liners

Walco Industries Ltd. successfully executed the task of safely removing a uranium vessel liner. Preferring 3-D tooling over robotics due to cost considerations, they strategically planned tool deployment and limited exposure time to 15 minutes per phase for safety compliance.

Workers rigorously followed PPE protocols, while collaboration with the customer enabled 95% liner removal, allowing extended work hours. Through meticulous project management and unwavering commitment to safety protocols, the project achieved its objectives.
