Machined Graphite Spheres for Pebble-Bed Reactors

The core of a pebble bed reactor contains, besides fuel spheres, at various stages also fuel-free Machined Graphite Spheres.

Machined Graphite Spheres have high requirements on size and weight and they need to be resistant to both high temperatures and abrasion.

Based on proven raw materials SGL Group's graphite feedstock has extremely consistent properties that coupled with high precision machining yield a reliable mass product.
