Heavy lifting equipment for the nuclear industry is a super-large special lifting equipment specifically designed for critical stages such as the construction, operation, maintenance, and decommissioning of nuclear power plants. Its core features are extremely high safety redundancy and extremely precise positioning, ensuring absolute safety even in special working conditions such as radioactive environments. The upstream supply chain for heavy-duty lifting equipment in the nuclear industry focuses on the research and development and manufacturing of special materials, core components, and control systems. Core aspects include the production of special steel with ultra-high strength, radiation resistance, and extreme temperature stability; the research and development of multi-motor synchronous control systems, high-reliability braking systems, and safety monitoring sensors for achieving millimeter-level precision; and the manufacturing of key mechanical components such as high-power motors, heavy-duty gearboxes, and high-strength steel wire ropes. This level of technology has extremely high barriers to entry, and suppliers typically need to obtain stringent nuclear power quality assurance system certifications. The performance of their products directly determines the safety, reliability, and service life of the lifting equipment. The midstream supply chain involves the overall design, integrated manufacturing, and verification of heavy-duty lifting equipment. Companies conduct customized design and engineering integration based on different application scenarios such as nuclear power plants and reprocessing plants (e.g., reactor building ring cranes, spent fuel container lifting equipment, equipment gate cranes, etc.). This involves transforming upstream components into complete lifting systems, including the comprehensive integration of large steel structure frames, lifting mechanisms, running mechanisms, electrical control systems, and safety protection systems. Leading companies must possess heavy machinery manufacturing capabilities, nuclear power equipment qualifications, and extensive nuclear engineering experience. Final products must pass prototype testing and rigorous safety reviews, including seismic and aging analyses. The downstream industry chain directly serves the entire lifecycle of nuclear facilities, from construction and operation to maintenance and decommissioning. During the construction phase of a nuclear power plant, the equipment is used for hoisting and positioning main equipment such as reactor pressure vessels, steam generators, and pressurizers. During operation, it is responsible for hoisting large components during nuclear fuel replacement and equipment maintenance. In reprocessing plants or decommissioning projects, it is used for the safe transfer of radioactive materials or large decommissioned components. Clients are primarily nuclear power engineering companies, nuclear power plant operators, and nuclear fuel cycle companies. Their needs are closely linked to the progress of nuclear power projects, overhaul plans, and nuclear facility decommissioning projects, emphasizing all-weather reliable operation, absolute safety, and full lifecycle technical support and services.
