Handling Technology (Remote Controlled System)
In all areas which are not accessible for human beings due to radioactivity existing there, work must be carried out with remote handling, remote control or fully automatically. For the most varied applications, BNN has worked out tailor-made solutions as the following examples show, which again are only a small selection of the references available.Manipulators for Dismantling
