NUCLEAR
ENGINEERING FOR COMPLIANCE
Regulatory oversight shapes every aspect of nuclear operations. CDS Airtek works closely with clients to ensure our bespoke thermal processing systems for nuclear applications align with operational standards, technical specifications, and internal governance frameworks. From controlled temperature profiles to monitored airflow and automated control systems, our solutions support traceable and repeatable processes. This structured, project-led approach allows operators to maintain confidence in process integrity while meeting audit and compliance expectations.
DESIGNED FOR LONG SERVICE LIFE
Nuclear facilities require equipment that remains dependable across extended duty cycles. CDS Airtek designs bespoke systems with durability, maintainability, and future adaptability in mind, allowing for planned servicing, process refinement, and long-term operational flexibility. By addressing lifecycle performance during the design phase, our thermal solutions continue to deliver consistent results while supporting long-term asset planning.
BESPOKE NUCLEAR-GRADE HEAT TREATMENT OVENS AND FURNACES
CDS Airtek provides bespoke industrial oven and furnace systems suited to regulated nuclear applications where consistent heat treatment performance is essential. These systems are engineered for repeatability, process control, and dependable operation, helping customers manage demanding thermal processes with confidence.
BATCH OVENS AND FURNACES
For lower-volume production, mixed-part work, or applications requiring flexibility, CDS Airtek can supply bespoke batch ovens and furnaces configured around the process and the product. These systems are designed to provide controlled and repeatable results while supporting practical operation within regulated manufacturing environments.
CONTINUOUS OVENS AND FURNACES
Where production routing and product geometry suit a flow-line approach, CDS Airtek can provide bespoke continuous ovens and furnaces, including systems engineered to support controlled throughput, stable operating conditions, and repeatable handling. Where appropriate, this can include Walking Beam Furnace style solutions developed around the specific process and material movement requirements of the application. These systems help manufacturers maintain control, efficiency, and repeatability across longer production runs.
CONTROLLED HEAT TREATMENT
We provide bespoke industrial ovens and furnaces for drying, curing, and heat treatment applications where consistency is essential. Systems are designed around defined temperature tolerances, airflow patterns, and process requirements, supporting applications that demand controlled outcomes and documented performance. UK-based design and manufacture allow close control over quality and technical detail, supporting nuclear manufacturers that require proven and repeatable processing conditions.
MOISTURE CONTROL AND ADVANCED DRYING
Moisture management is a key consideration in many nuclear processes. CDS Airtek R-O2 drying technology uses superheated steam to deliver efficient moisture removal while reducing energy use and drying losses. This method supports sensitive materials and complex geometries where conventional drying methods may introduce variability. Systems are designed to integrate smoothly into existing operations, helping to maintain process continuity.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROL WITHIN NUCLEAR FACILITIES
Maintaining clean and controlled environments is essential for safety and operational efficiency. CDS Airtek designs dust and fume extraction systems to manage airborne particulates and process emissions at source. Solutions are tailored to individual processes, layouts, and site requirements. By controlling air quality within production and maintenance areas, our systems support safer working conditions and operational stability.
SUPPORT BEYOND INSTALLATION
CDS Airtek provides ongoing technical support throughout the life of every system. From planned maintenance and fault diagnosis to process optimisation and upgrades, our engineers work closely with nuclear operators to maintain performance and reduce unplanned downtime. This continued support helps ensure systems remain reliable and aligned with operational requirements as facilities evolve.
