Abstract :
This paper reflects the status of the manufacturing of 2 Radial Plate prototypes for the EU ITER TF Coils. The production of these prototypes will supply valuable information for the manufacturing of the total required number of 70 Radial Plates, in terms of manufacturing technologies, optimization of cost, manufacturing time and risks.
