The RESHAND model that GDES-T4S<\/a><\/strong> has delivered to the Almaraz Nuclear Power Plant is a new version capable of also operating outside the water, for handling radioactive waste and moving materials in areas of difficult access or with risk of radiation and contamination, such as a solid waste interim storage facility.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The RESHAND robotic arm was initially designed for foreign material exclusion in the containment pools of nuclear power plants. It attaches to any pole model and is controlled by a single operator, through a sensor-equipped Bluetooth-enabled glove.<\/p>\n Equipped with three degrees of freedom, two cameras, a complete set of utensils and batteries for energy autonomy, it is capable of retrieving or repositioning objects precisely, efficiently and safely. Its main advantages include its flexibility of use and a reduced collective dose during operations, owing to the fact that RESHAND is designed to be operated by a single worker.<\/p>\n
