Remote spray coating of nuclear cross-under piping

摘要

A machine (10) that can clean and spray coat the inside of a hollow pipe (14) can contain a support bar (16) and associated motors (6 and 8) with a moveable carriage (12) which mounts a thermal spray coating device (28) and/or an abrasion cleaning/profiling head (30) where a programmable controller external to the pipe is capable of controlling the motors (6 and 8).
