SIMIC is supplying 70 Radial Plates in Consortium with the french company CNIM, SIMIC is the Group leader.

The Radial Plates are « D » shaped mechanical structures of measure 13.8 m x 8.7 m x 110 mm, made from 316LN stainless steel. They will form the ‘backbone’ of the 18 field magnets needed to keep the plasma confined within the ITER vacuum chamber. The radial plates have on each side spiral round-shaped grooves which are closed by cover plates. This contract was signed at the end of 2012 and will last until early 2017
