Grant secured through Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for work with Concurrent Technologies and North American Forgemasters. This remarkable collaboration ABOUT US > News And Updates 4.22.2022 > FORGING NEWS AND UPDATES FROM NORTH AMERICAN FORGEMASTERS NuScale Power Signs Collaboration Agreement with the U.S. Reactor Forging Consortium Colin Herchenbach On April 22, 2022 This remarkable collaboration will strengthen supply chain capabilities as NuScale Power approaches commercialization Grant secured through Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for work with Concurrent Technologies and North American Forgemasters PORTLAND, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Today, NuScale Power and the U.S. Reactor Forging Consortium (RFC), comprised of North American Forgemasters (NAF), Scot Forge, and ATI Forged Products, announced they have signed a Collaboration Agreement to leverage the existing robust forging supply chain in the U.S., to prepare NuScale to deploy its small modular reactor (SMR) technology to customers worldwide and to support, retain, and expand U.S. manufacturing jobs. The RFC is the combination of highly qualified expert suppliers of nuclear-grade forgings for the worldwide nuclear industry. The combined three companies act as the only fully integrated manufacturer of large alloy and stainless steel open die, seamless rolled ring, and large uniquely-shaped forgings (heads with integral nozzles) in the Western Hemisphere with as-forged piece weights exceeding 160 tons. Under the Collaboration Agreement, the RFC and NuScale will cooperate in design for manufacturability reviews for forged geometries to reduce welding, chemical composition tailoring and optimized configuration for fabrication. The collaboration will support the U.S. supply chain planning as NuScale approaches near term commercialization of the NuScale Power Modules™ (NPM). The Collaboration Agreement supports the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) report released earlier this year, “America’s Strategy to Secure the Supply Chain for a Robust Clean Energy Transition ,” designed to retain and develop U.S. jobs through the exploration of mutually beneficial domestic business relationships. This includes, but is not limited to, U.S. and State Government grants and funding opportunities, development of FC member company capabilities and capacities, and other U.S. manufacturing opportunities. Consortium member NAF is currently partnering with Pennsylvania-based Center for Advanced Nuclear Manufacturing, operated by Concurrent Technologies Corporation (CTC), on a full production size shell research project that will focus on the use of austenitic stainless steel for reactor and containment vessels in SMRs and advance reactors. Financed in part by a grant from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Economic Development, NAF in collaboration with its joint venture owners Scot Forge and ELLWOOD Group, INC. will perform melting, forging, heat treating, rough machining, mechanical testing, and non-destructive testing while CTC oversees the development and performs independent technical evaluations of the forged material. This partnership will serve to create jobs by establishing a supply chain in Pennsylvania and ultimately benefit the overall development of SMRs and advanced reactor deployment. The RFC partners are strategically located across the U.S. and are helping NuScale strengthen its U.S. supply chain. NAF has its principal office in New Castle, Pennsylvania; Scot Forge is headquartered in Spring Grove, Illinois; and ATI Forged Products has its office in Cudahy, Wisconsin. NAF, Scot Forge, and ATI have previously worked collaboratively on the refinement of designs and manufacturing feasibility of large nuclear grade forgings for the NPM. About NuScale Power NuScale Power is poised to meet the diverse energy needs of customers across the world. It has developed a new modular light water reactor nuclear power plant to supply energy for electrical generation, district heating, desalination, hydrogen production and other process heat applications. The groundbreaking NuScale Power Module™ (NPM), a small, safe, pressurized water reactor, can generate 77 MWe of electricity and can be scaled to meet customer needs. The VOYGR™-12 power plant is capable of generating 924 MWe, and NuScale also offers four-module VOYGR-4 (308 MWe) and six-module VOYGR-6 (462 MWe) plants and other configurations based on customer needs. The majority investor in NuScale is Fluor Corporation, a global engineering, procurement, and construction company with more than 70 years supporting nuclear projects. NuScale is headquartered in Portland, Ore. and has offices in Corvallis, Ore.; Rockville, Md.; Charlotte, N.C.; Richland, Wash.; and London, UK.

North American Forgemasters, home of the largest open-die press in North America, forges over 100,000 ingot tons per year and is capable of producing parts weighing up to 270,000 lbs. CAPABILITIES > Forging > OPEN DIE FORGING Providing strong, reliable parts - Made in America EQUIPMENT AND CAPABILITIES NAF’s new 90MN (10,120 ton) open die forging press is the greatest tonnage, fastest acting and most reliable in the Americas. The press opening is also the largest with 6 meters (236 inches) of vertical daylight and five meters (197 inches) between the columns. The stroke is 3.1 meters (122 inches). The press is serviced by a 200 metric ton railbound manipulator, a 100 metric ton mobile manipulator and a 230 metric ton overhead crane. The existing, internally designed and built 40 MN (4,500 ton) sister press is serviced by multiple 45 metric ton mobile manipulators. This press has been operational since 1998 and was fully rebuilt in 2013. During its operation, NAF has averaged forging more than 100,000 ingot tons per year making it the most productive press in the U.S. and possibly the world. This is a testament to both the skill of the NAF forging crews and the maintenance staff that maximizes the press uptime. 90 MN (10,120 ton) open die forging press 40 MN (4,500 ton) open die forging press 200 metric ton railbound manipulator 45 metric ton mobile manipulators 100 metric ton mobile manipulator 230 metric ton and other overhead cranes In the press complex there are box type forge heating furnaces and a large car bottom furnace redundancies that employing the latest regenerative burner technology. Continue to the Heat Treatment section to learn more! THE PROCESS Open die forging is a manufacturing process where heated metal is shaped and densified by applying great hydraulic pressure to the part between a top and bottom die. Compared to other metalworking processes, like castings, fabrications or weldments, the forging process inherently produces stronger parts by achieving contoured grain flow and fine grain size and by consolidating porosity in the part. < Steelmaking Heat Treat >
