Abstract
The technical requirements of the control rod driving mechanism of the third generation PWR nuclear power plant are higher. The latch parts are designed with double tooth structure and welded on the wear-resistant surface by cobalt-based alloy surfacing. According to the structural characteristics and manufacturing process difficulties, a special welding device is developed. According to the test and finite element simulation, the related process parameters are optimized. The trial production of the parts was completed, and the parts were tested by metallography, liquid permeation test, hardness test and thermal life test. The results show that the latch parts have high hardness and wear resistance, and meet the requirements of the driving mechanism operation life of the third generation PWR nuclear power plant.
